- - This doesn't sound right - I though he claims to live in Rochester, not
- Buffalo. I also suspect him of not being autocthonous. People from both
- Rochester and Buffalo know they live in _Western_ New York, not _upstate_.
-
- I suspect that the guy is originally from downstate - NYC or Long Island and
- that this means the wings may not be hot enough...
