Upopn further reflection, I've decided I don't really disagree with this. There are a lot of similarities: the slight differences in accent indistinguishable to outsiders, the smaller, better educated, cleaner population, the more liberal politics, the lunatic fringe living in the eastern part that speak a different language. Works for me.
Of course, when Marylanders travel we don't pin a Maryland flag to everything so that those we encounter won't mistake us for Virginians.
