  1. Do you know the dialect preferences for firefly vs lightning bug? I think I used lightning bug when I was a kid and somehow have shifted to firefly.

    • I’ve been lightning bug all along, being raised with that terminology, along with “crick” for those small tributaries and “Missoura” as the proper pronunciation for our neighboring state. “Osage orange” came long after “hedge apple” and “Kaw” was preferred over “Kansas River.” Bottom line, tho, is that it’s all good.
