Ah, me and my common American Scotch-Irish ancestry.

I would note that in terms of per capita population, Anderson is extremely common in Tennessee, North Carolina and Georgia (as well as Iowa and Minnesota).

Haha, I tried those both too. Yes I had the same results, but maybe we should be scared as Bin Laden made it under our radars?
