I'm pretty sure the most we have to claim fame for is that the inventor of the penny black stamp, Rowland (sp?) Hill was born here, and that we produce a hell of a lot of carpets.

We are a tiny, backwater town that happens to be the headquarters for Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Ben and Jerry's, and Vermont's State Mental Hospital. I think that's pretty damn cool.

It's not really famous for this but it was the first town in Yorkshire to have a school shut because of swine flu.

The citizens of Moscow are famous for their extremely polite behavior. And by that I mean they hate everyone, even their neighbors. Man, we are such dicks...

Sadly, I'm not joking... It's a good thing no one knows about Shrewsbury.

I do, my friends live there. It's great!

i live in Grass Valley, CA, a town that was like the major gold mining town back in the 1800's during the Gold Rush. Empire Mine and a bunch of other mines still exist her as, right now, tourist traps. But there's still mining junk ALL OVER THE PLACE

also, i believe Chuck Yeager and Lyman Gilmore, the first man to fly a powered air craft (a steam powered glider). Forget the Wright Brothers!!
