About yankees: Yes, we're all yankees to the British, and it deeply offends me...

Personally, I refer to yankees as anyone from Maryland to New England, and over parts of the midwest up to minnesota. I usually don't call people from the west coast yankees. I'll generally call them "hippies" or "bleeding hearts" or something along those lines. Now, if I get like Mel Gibson drunk, I could see myself referring to californians as yankees.
