In "Simple Simpson", when Lisa is telling Homer she knows he's the superhero, she says something like "we've been getting his mail for weeks". The address on the envelope is "742 Evergreen Terrace, Springfield, USA."

Why was this worthy of pointing out though? 742 Evergreen Terrace has shown up more times than most of Bart's catchphrases.

I realize that we've known their street address for a long time. I realize that we didn't learn anything from seeing that envelope.

I was trying to be funny, making a reference to the long-standing discussion about the location of Springfield.

You tried your best, and you failed miserably. The lesson is: never try.

Hence your wasting bandwidth by pointing out something with no meaning at all. What a genius you must perceive yourself to be.

If being rude and sarcastic is a measure of intelligence, then you, Sir, are a great genius.

Get a life. ONE message isn't wasting bandwith. Even if it were so troubling, why waste more bandwith to reply?

Your sarcasm covers over an interesting point. Namely, that we used to discuss the possibility that Springfield was in Canada. But, the "Springfield, USA" has been around for awhile.

They could still be in some foreign country or fictional place like Florida or Long Island, however.
