Living in California, you encounter many cities with spanish names.  I live
in San Jose, but there's also Santa Clara, Salida, Los Banos, Buena Vista, Rio
Grande, and too many other places and names.  It make me wonder what spanish
speakers think when we drop names like "The Toilet" or "The Beautifal View"
or "Big River" when speaking in english.
