Funny, I only recently started visiting Connecticut to visit some friends who moved there! Rhode Island, the first to declare independence from England, and the last to ratify the Constitution. Not bad.

Also, Rhode Island has: - the Touro Synagogue, the oldest synagogue in the U.S. - Naval Undersea Warfare Centers, Newport, whose predecessor (IIUC) built the world's crappiest torpedoes until a few years into WW2. Drop me a line if you're ever in the area! "${my_hn_username}HN@gmail.com".
