STATESVILLE, NC (WBTV) -

CHARLOTTE, N.C. —

GREENSBORO, N.C. – One woman is dead and two people injured after police said a truck ran a stop sign and crashed into a car Saturday in Greensboro.
Of course it can happen anywhere. Didn't say it didn't. I know who did it, I know what happened. I don't make stuff up.

The under sea environment here (and other places fortunate enough to have Coral reefs is very beautiful.
It's a nice place to visit but I wouldnt want to live there.

I see. So it didnt make the news. With the density of NY transplants in the FL metro areas I guess the odds of a guy from New York being involved in something is greater than it being a guy from Iowa.

I think he's being sarcastic. Front plates are a pita to install on some cars and look ugly in general

More than half the Canadian provinces (Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador) do not require front licence plates. And for those of you who are left leaning and progressive, Quebec does not require them; They speak French there and are left of center compared to the US. So those of you who do not want Florida to be like other Southern states and places like PA and IN, you could say Florida is like Quebec

That's why you have no clue what FL offers..from a nature lover's perspective, it's one of the best environments in NA. From a couch potato's perspective, .. you get the idea.

Humans can't live underwater.

Coral reefs go back millions of yrs. We might kill them in our lifetime, so increasing awareness is good. Plus they bring millions in to the state of FL thru tourism(diving/fishing etc..) Same with the cave system by you..

In that it's unique and can't quite identify with any other part of the continent, yes. Also, Montreal and Miami share quite a few similarities, despite their vastly different climates.

One thing we don't have in FL that Quebec does, though, is that stupid Language Police (yes, it is a thing. Look it up.)
