En route from North Platte, Nebraska to Cedar Rapids, Iowa I overheard the following:
Cessna:
"Minneapolis Center, Cessna 12345, request flight following to Omaha."
Center:
"Cessna 12345, Minneapolis Center. Say position."
Cessna:
"I’m almost on the Kansas border."
Center:
"That’s a fairly wide state. Can you narrow it down for me?"
