Todd, I think you may have broken NYC down too much.  You could probably
condense Bronx (The Bronx), Kings (which is the borough of Brooklyn but you
use the county name), Manhattan Island, Queens and Staten Island (which is
Richmond County but you use the burrough name) into Metro NYC.

OK, it sounds like it's premature to use the really-specific groups.  So
just use lugnet.loc.us.ny then, and ignore its subgroups.

Someday, of course, since NYC is so freakin' huge and it takes so long to
get from one side to the other by car (ha), they'll all make sense, right?

In addition, Suffolk, Yonkers and Nassau are not part of NYC.

Hmm, then what are they a part of?

Are they at least a part of NYC as much as San Jose is a part of San
Francisco, or as much as Long Beach is a part of Los Angeles?


Suffolk and
Nassau could be combined into Long Island.
Yonkers is best left to itself  :')

Is Long Island part of New York City or a part of New York state?

Anyway, just some thoughts

(...) Eventually, as long as they don't drive :') (...) Long Island is part of NY State. Yonkers is a separate City at the base of NY State (right up the Hudson). (...) Boxer (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.admin.general)
