The family tree's are straight lines and the banjo is played daily down at Dave's brother uncle cousins shop when his sister mom isn't too busy with your father uncle.

Actually it's just home to a very high tech piece of science, not some backwards community...

 
When I was 14, a friend and I backpacked the Monongaheia Nation Forest, which is just east of this town. He had an Uncle that moved to Elkins in the late '60s, so we went for a visit and a backpacking trip. Beautiful country, but very backwoods, and very overgrown with everything. A nature lovers paradise.
 
So they had to throw away the one flip phone and the rabbit ears?

humor is fundemental.
WV Town bans all cell and wifi...

WV... No tech...

Made a joke.

Totally over your head.

:3oops:

I've seen far too much of the "I only read the headline and not the article." threads started here. Forgive me for my pessimism...
 
We shouldn't make fun of them. After the apocalypse they will probably be the only gene pool left! :shock:
 
There are times when I wished I lived in a town like that. :lol:

You already live in Arizona. You can't get much more backwards than that.
 
I wonder if the police chief drives around with a computer looking for wifi routers.

Funny coming from someone living in New Mexico.
 
I do find it interesting that many of the same people get their panties all full sand when someone makes a negative generalisation about black, gay, Muslim or Latino groups. Are the first to make negative generalisations about Caucasian folks from a state and see nothing wrong with it.
 
That falls in the National Radio Quiet Zone, it isn't exactly something that people who lived there decided to do, it's a federal radio-free area, kept clear so the radio telescopes there can operate unhindered.
 
Also, there are those who don't believe their bodies do so well around electronics. I'm not saying their claims are anything more than psychological, but they exist and in numbers. I'd heard there are towns that cater to those folks.
 
We should park one on the far side of the moon.

Which would be great if we didn't gut our space program. I completely agree.
