  Ironically the Rhyming Slang term refers to the Union side of the First US Civil War, but is more often applied to the Secessionists.

  I also prefer using the term than “Columbophiles” because Seppos don’t identify as “Columbian” because there is another country called Columbia.

  They don’t identify as “Septic Tanks” either but the rest of the world identifies them along that line.
