Shouldn't NEIT which is in Warwick be noted somewhere?
This is the first time I've heard any mention of the Department of Homeland Security getting involved in the Station fire. The deaths of 96 people would have been sufficient to make news without any DoHS involvement. -- Zoe
For the upteenth time Warwick and West Warwick are not the same place:
From the 1990 Gazetteer
Warwick, RI (city, FIPS 74300) Location: 41.70220 N, 71.42185 W Population (1990): 85427 (35141 housing units) Area: 92.0 sq km (land), 36.6 sq km (water) Zip code(s): 02886, 02888, 02889
West Warwick, RI (CDP, FIPS 78260) Location: 41.69755 N, 71.51833 W Population (1990): 29268 (12488 housing units) Area: 20.5 sq km (land), 0.5 sq km (water) Zip code(s): 02893

In Warwick, England, the second 'w' is not pronounced. Do people in RI and nearby use the same pronunciation?
Haha, to answer your question, 148.87.1.170, many people do. However, this is due to our Rhode Island accents, and is not the official pronunciation of the city's name.

The city is crime ridden, and per capita income is incorrect. It is now a sanctuary city for migrants, and most recently, many of its residents were on assistance for utilities, and food. Due to overtaking, and political corruption, it is likely to continue its decline — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.219.221.94 ( talk) 16:28, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
Isn't Nathanael Greene's town Coventry since his family owns land here? ~~KB1KOI~~
The article mentions Gaspee, but it should be more indepth and mention where the guy (forgot his name) got shot...heh heh.

Warwick is named after the English city of the same name and was pronounced the same originally in Rhode Island but overtime people started there pronouncing it incorrectly.
It was originally pronounced Worick (as they do in England) but now people in Rhode Island pronounce it war-wick.
