I've also heard that there's no true Yankee. Kinda like there's no true Scottsman. For someone in Mexico, all Yankees are from USandA and that's all they care about. For someone in Louisiana (myself) all Yankees are from north of the Mason-Dixon. For someone in Ohio, all Yankees are from the northeast somewhere. For someone in Jersey, all Yankees are just a bit further northeast. Maybe try Boston, they'll say. If you ask someone in Boston where to find a Yankee, they'll direct you to some street corner or a pub.
