Which is completely understandable for that very reason. It is because of my background that I get to see it a little more even with growing up in that timeframe. I live just up the road from a place named for being a moonshine run and the descendants of the family still inhabit the area. I work with folks from areas that police don't go, and it's been that way for generations. Their holler is inhabited by one branch of a family that spells their name slightly different than another branch and they have been feuding for a century or more.
I love Appalachia.
