No wonder I sell so much software in the midwest
I was born in Nevada, to parents that grew up in California and New Mexico. I have spent all of my adult life in the northwest.
I am not at all midwstern, but perhaps I play one on the phone. I spend most of every day chatting with farmers on the telephone. Some of them may be rubbing off on me. A sizable portion of the people who I work with are farmers or bankers based out of Minnesota. I would suspect that qualifies as upper midwestern?
