Could all of you USians please tag your place / Country in hashtags or text appropriately please? I really support you all going through your #motorcyle adventures but there’s a difference between London in United Kingdom and London in other parts of the world if you catch my drift…?

@teotwaki @artwaw @cstross We did, yes, from the Roman placename Londinium. Rather unoriginally it was on the same site

What can be a problem is the confusion of the city London with the City of London

@artwaw

There's a USA town named Hell. I want them to be more specific when they post too.

@artwaw it would be nice to have even beyond motorcycle questions, and preferably for any English-speaking country at least (since English, by jokes of fate, become an international language).

@artwaw I'm guessing my posts about the Cambridge and Boston region are especially troublesome. In my defense, the Boston in those posts has been the "hub of the solar system" since 1858CE. (It has since grown to be the hub of the universe.)

@artwaw One of my favorite comic characters is "The Werewolf of London, Ontario". (From Spinnerette).
