I would appreciate if you would not use a term for my ancestors and family in a derogatory way, even if refering to yourself sarcastically. "The Appalachian region was largely settled in the 18th century by the Scotch-Irish, the majority of whom originated in the lowlands of Scotland. Harkins believes the most credible theory of the term's origin is that it derives from the linkage of two older Scottish expressions, "hill-folk" and "billie" which was a synonym for "fellow", similar to "guy" or "bloke"." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillbilly Also, the word is now, not know. So basically the good advice I gave was wasted time, since you are obviously now just trolling and baiting for personal attacks. That has nothing to do with being a "hillbilly" and everything to do with your personal ethics, which is a reflection of yourself. quote:
