[edit] Trivia/Info

  • The story of a mythical West Virginia made of concentric West Virginias.
  • Sugar Maples are, of course, the state tree and rhododendrons are the state flower.
  • Partly inspired by the song Georgy Girl; "There's another Georgy deep inside."
  • The lines "To be constantly a part of you / You'll never part and you will be / The party who will be partial to you" are reminiscent of "I knew what I had to do to be well-to-do / And it had to do with the things / I had to do" from Now That I Have Everything.
