I left my heart in Gnawbone

When I saw the headline on this story, I wondered what the heck a "universal" woman was? An out-of-this-world woman? A woman who worked for a movie studio? A beauty contest winner? Of course not. She was a woman from Universal, Ind., pop. 400-plus. We have lots of little places (all below 1,000 pop.) with interesting names. Unlike, you know, other states.

The list of Indiana communities you posted doesn't begin to touch the number of place names in Indiana.
Zulu, Indiana is not on the list but is certainly in Rand-MacNally. It's the only place in the United States named Zulu.
This message is sent from the event staff of the Zoom thru Zulu 10K Race which, again this year, was part of the News-Sentinel Running Series.
