Where is Boston?

There are messages "Subject: Re: fans in Boston"

Please, remember, there are still a few people who still live east of the
ocean and haven't moved to America. Among them, there are still many who think
first of the Boston in Lincolnshire (UK) when they read about "Boston" with no
further details.

Sorryaboutthat. When I hear a city I automatically think of the most
prominent one. IE when someone mentions Paris, I automatically think
of the one in France first, although there is a Paris in Texas USA,
and a Paris in Kentucky USA. (There's also Versailles, Kentucky, but
they don't know how to pronounce it correctly there...).

I'll try to use Boston, MA USA when referring to the area where I
currently live. (The one near MIT)
