Carol responds:
Isn't there a big river with sturgeon in it? And the people speak with
heavy Northern accents?

That's the way I picture it. The Londoners of Richard's time thought
that the Northerners were uncouth, but IMO they were mistaken.

I've heard of York Minster, but what is the Jorvik exhibition?

Carol, who wishes that American cities were as steeped in history as
British ones, but even Salem dates only to the seventeenth century
