Sprinfield in the Simpsons(TM) is in NEW YORK! They showed the episode today where Lisa tours the country for an essay/speech contest. They pan from state to state across the MidWest, then show NYC and Long Island, and then right there on the map just upstate (White Plains? Poughkipsee?) is a three-eyed fish icon and the word “SRINGFIELD”.
The only nucler power plant in that area is Indian Point in Buchanan, NY, near Peekskill. The mystery has been solved. My wife said i was glowing when we figured it out. I can now sleep soundly, a wonderful end to a wonderful day…
