Iowa has weird town names, or at least memorable ones. In addition to having "Lost Nation" seared into my brain, the hometown of Jack Hamilton, Morning Sun, is similarly seared, mainly because it was Bob Murphy's practice to mention them every time ... Hamilton's NYC tenure was both earlier and briefer than McAndrew's so I don't remember the Morning Sun mentions the way I did Lost Nation, hence that town not being on the sight-seeing itinerary.
