The thing about Georgia reminds me of a conversation I had a school. Jokingly I said That I hope the fighting in Georgia doesn't spread to Alabama, and this guy in my class says "I don't see how Russia could invade one state without taking on all fifty".
That guy isn't stupid at all, but to his own admission he doesn't know his geography or keep up on world news, so he actually thought that Russia had invaded the state of Georgia.
