"Not much for geography are you? The last time I checked, there were swaps in both Louisiana and Florida, neither of which are near the equator. Not unless the U.S. has somehow magically broken away from Canada and Mexico and floated down there." Merlin, where had that girl gone to school? A barn?!?!?
As for the professor's question......
"Along with what my other," smarter classmates have said, swaps are a excellent breeding ground for mosquitos and other insects. Gross. And speaking of which, one landed on her arm, just to prove her point. She smacked it away and waited for the professor to continue the lesson.
