History

Lake City was named for Riley Lake, who opened a store there in 1878.[2]

A post office was opened in Lake City in 1873, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1993.[3]

gollark: I think I've been pretty clear that I'd prefer Nobody to not gather people's datas without asking them *beforehand*, but if he does do that anyway then he should notify people he's doing it.
gollark: If he *isn't* telling people about his data gathering escapades then he may not receive the appropriate complaint volume, so maybe I should just *assume* he's looking up someone's data at random times and complain?
gollark: I'd prefer him to not do it *at all* over doing it and telling them, and would prefer doing it and telling them over doing it and not telling them.
gollark: Hmm. Well. I would prefer if Nobody *told* people if he was trying to find datas on them, and if he succeeded.
gollark: What thing? That he would do the same stuff more ominously?
