Yooper - Really Should be 'Wooper'

In reading up on the history of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, it is interesting to see how this area was basically discarded as unwanted space during the early-mid 1800s,which in earth years is not really that long ago.

Traveling to the UP is seamless from Wisconsin,so I am probably not the only one who considers the UP more a part of our state than of Michigan (taxes aside). No offense of Michiganites (Michigonians..?) Exactly what is the plural term used here?

The U.P. should be its own state so lay off on the dream of it becoming Wisconsin. Cheese on dude....
