Clarification request(s) and response
GoodWords: 4:03am Mar 17, 2008: Aunque no afecta la traducción, cabe notar que la definición geográfica de "upper" (más comunamente llamado "upstate") varía según el punto de vista, como se explica aquí: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upstate_New_York
Henry Hinds: 4:59am Mar 17, 2008: I would venture that "Upper New York State" and "Upstate New York" do not mean quite the same thing either. Could someone from that area comment on that?
GoodWords: 5:52am Mar 17, 2008: I'm not quite from that area, but I'd venture that even if they don't quite mean the same thing, they end up referring to the same geographical area.

  -> Gracias Beatriz, sigo pensando que nuestra opción mejor que la elegida. Gajes del oficio.

disagree Javier Wasserzug: Solamente New York es nombre propio, por eso, son la únicas palabras que van con mayúsculas. Aún cuando aparecen así en el original.
