Isn't it really part of Canada, Ken? I think they dredged the Detroit
river and moved it so they wouldn't have to claim Detriot,
probably. FWIW there was a fight between Michigan and Ohio over the
border area between them many years ago. Michigan lost and had to claim
the land. That is why there is a jog in the southern border today.

Talk about Urban Sprall! I didn't realize that
Detroit has spread all the way across the state. No
Michigander from the West Michigan area would stand
for this INSULT! Detroit is that corner of the state
that we don't claim.
