That's like the Motor Vehicle Administration asking me if my British driving licence was in English. No, it's in French ...

I also have my own New Mexico story. In my first US job there was an office clerk who had lived in Virginia all her life and thought New Mexico was in Mexico. None of the (numerous) foreign employees made the same mistake, not a single one! It was at this point that we suspected that geography education here might be a bit lacking. Now, nearly 20 years later and with two kids in the school system here we no longer think it, we know it for a fact, LOL!
