    What??? You mean what I saw at Branson and Silver Dollar City isn't the real Ozark culture? I suppose next you're going to tell me that Renaissance Faires aren't historically accurate.?

    Disclaimer: I grew up in southern Illinois, so I've been to the Ozarks many times. In fact, when I visited Branson it was before the build up and was still a small town with just a couple of local motels for those going to the recently built Silver Dollar City. And I know all about Renn Faires that somehow have Robin Hood, King Arthur and Queen Elizabeth all interacting???
