On a related note, I have a good friend who has lived in Kansas for some years. He has commented to me regarding how ludicrous the geography depicted in the TV show
Gunsmoke is. He says (paraphrased), "They always show Marshal Dillon meandering through forested, rolling hills. . . Kansas is in the
prairie! There
are no hills! It's as flat as a billiard table out to the horizon!"
I have to admit, living here in a place where mountains are always on the horizon, that salient point never occurred to me.
