@dev whoever is answering yes to this lives on a much smaller planet than I do

@ricci @dev that was my first reaction, but then someone pointed out to me that Pittsburgh is only about 30 miles from the border with Ohio which is clearly in the midwest so now I am confused

@ricci @dev it is also in the Ohio Valley which means I have to link this:

@ricci @dev when my dad was born (not too far away on the Ohio side), this was the only pizza available in Ohio, and it had just been introduced.

This might explain why my grandmother never ordered a pizza delivery in her life.

@ricci @dev (she also never used an ATM or a computer, and only reluctantly got a touchtone phone a few years before she died)

@dan @ricci @dev this brings to mind a memory that hasn’t surfaced in decades: my mom having a slight callus on the finger that she always dialed with (prior to touch tone phones.)
