LMAO!
I used to work for a company where I had to interview and testprospective employees. One of the tests was a U.S. map wherethey had to label the states.......
Did you know Africa was Down south near mexico?
Now, Varna isn't in the states and I can completely understand her notknowing. I wouldn't be able to tell you anything about hercountry..... but I always hate when people can't even label their ownstate on a map! That happened more often than not! :shock:

Varna,
Connecticut is a "state" in the U.S. located just above New York City on a map of the U.S.... lat. 61 long. 70.
It is bordered by the State of Massachusetts on the north and the Stateof New York on the west, Rhode Island on the east. All ofthem are in the northeast of the U.S.

Hi Varna,
If you look at a map of the USA, from the top right hand corner ofAmerica, Connecticut is the 4th State down that borders the AtlanticOcean.
As you know, there's 50 States in America. Some are bigger than others.I can understand why Connecticut would be easy to miss on a map of theStates if you didn't know where to look.

When I flew to England, I went straight from New York to London, so ifyou were thinking that you'd have to fly across the United States toget to Tucker Town, you wouldn't.
That's the good news. England is north, but you're just over the otherside of The Pond. So close, yet so far, ey? It'll happen at some pointwhere I meet you someday. If you don't get to me, I'm coming to see youand Jan and DaisyNBuster. I love England and the people that livethere.
...and, Yes, it is unfortunate, Varna. :?
I'm a firm believer in what goes around, comes around.

I don't think anyone was being rude atall. I think everyone just was commenting on how funny itseems to those of us in the U.S. not to know.
The first person answered it was a state and not in a state.
As I said, I wouldn't know diddly about the U.K. and the thread took one of those jogs to another topic within the topic.
I think it's funny how negative some people see things..... always takethings the wrong way or the worst way they can. I thinkthat's so sad.

We have an International Airport in Louisville across the river that does not have any international flight!!P.S.Every State has a capital. Hartford is Connecticut's. Hartford'sAirport is called Bradley International Airport, so it does fly toEngland.

We all know Varna doesn't askdisingenuous questions and relies upon our responses.
The Internet is what it is and sometimes the inability to catch visualclues and nuances ,as when talking persontoperson,leads to misunderstandings. Ilike it because I must think about what I am going to write, as opposedto running off at the mouth without giving due forethought.

Believe the person asked a simple question and was expecting a simplecourteous reply. No one had really answered the questionterribly well and diverted the thread into stupid replies and commentsmade by stupid people.

Varna asked "can anyone tell me what state curnecicut is in"
The first response was "Connecticut is one of the 50 states in the United States"
Which did answer the question. Personally, I thought she wasprobably sending some mail and needed to know if there was somethingafter the Conn part.
Had she asked WHERE it was, I think .... no I KNOW we would have beenmore than happy to find a map or something. For all we knewshe had a map in front of her trying to find a city within one of thestates.
Those who knew what she was talking about in more depthcan'tassumeanyone knew she needed more information that what wasasked for.
The replies that were given I thought were showing Varna that evenpeople HERE in the states don't know where they are and not to feel badabout asking. I can tell you for sure that was my point inresponding.
Everyone needs to remember that you do not see facial expressions, hearvoice inflection, or anything like that in typed conversation. (buckpoints this out also but.. )If you want, you can twist just aboutanything into a negative response. If you keep in mind thatmost people are being positive and just chitchatting once a question isanswered, maybe you won't feel so offended.

Since it seems you really wanted to know whereConnecticut is and everyone is describing it, here's a map. Iwould have been more than happy to have done this yesterday, as Isaid. I apologize if you felt I or anyone else wasrude. I truly feel everyone and definitely know I thoughtyour question was answered.
Look over to the right and up .... the first (top) group of states thathave been brought out bigger .... there is a state with CT onit. That's what you're looking for!
I had no idea you were considering traveling here. I've never been abroad and would love to one day.
