    1. "You're Not Where You Think You Are"
    2. The undersigned has an article, "You're Not Where You Think You Are" (Pgs. 189-193), in the current issue of THE LONG ISLAND HISTORICAL JOURNAL, Volume 17, Nos 1-2 (Fall 2004/Spring 2005): https://dspace.sunyconnect.suny.edu/bitstream/1951/6616/1/LIHJSpring2005.pdf For those using dial-up modem access, the download may take on the order of 5 minutes or so as it includes the entire 270+ page issue. The Long Island Historical Journal is published by the Center for Regional Policy Studies, Department of History, Stony Brook University. Among other things in the article, I explain the problem caused by the USPS' use of non-conforming postal zones, and provide a listing of the many famous places in Nassau and Suffolk Counties that are in a different community than the community name that is part of their mailing address. I hope this information is useful or, at least, interesting. Regards, Walter Greenspan
