Back in the previous millennium when I was in college in Bozeman, MT, we used to call it Bozone. Maybe we thought it somehow made us cool.

There is now even a brand of beer named Bozone:

But when I think of the stupid things we did there, the notion of the town being surrounded by a force field shielding it from all intelligence seems appropriate.
