Huh? There's a place called Total Wreck, Arizona. tomtomtomtomtom, confirm?

Also, for you Bay Area folk, did you know El Cerrito used to be called Rust?

And while we're at it, Moscow, Idaho, where I spent two months one summer in college, used to be named Hog Heaven.

Ha! The mountains south of Tucson are full of little ghost towns like that. Unfortunately I never really explored them.
