Well said, Cedar. Perhaps the most intriguing think about the South is that outsiders cannot describe it.

One of my favorite accounts is in JT Glisson's "The Creek". His description of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, an outsider, who bought a place in their small community to write about them and capture the "essence" of Crackers/Southerners, is priceless.
