Idaho residents do get it, but given the small population of the state I'm sure that those not familiar with Idaho may not... apparently the post was not meant for you. Trust me, you'll get over it.

I find it interesting that geographic info is so passe for those trying to inform folks from elsewhere. I no longer dwell in Idaho but I'm just over the border and also (still) live a good 100 miles from the nearest Interstate Hwy. Explaining that to visitors when asked where the walmart or target is comes to mind whenever I see an error like the one in the article. The look on their faces is well worth telling them they passed it two hours ago.
