Hello. Can you give me some information on New York state? 
 Sure. I will be happy to. It is one of the original thirteen colonies of the United States. It is a state located in the northeastern United States. The city of Albany is its capital and the sixth largest city . 
 Cool! What else can you tell me about the cities and towns? 
 The town with the most people is Hempstead. It has over 700,000 residents. The largest city in the state is New York City. It has the largest population of any city in the United States. 
 I've never heard of Hempstead. But I think everyone has heard of NYC. What else can you tell me? 
 New York City has been the largest port of entry for legal immigration in the U.S. since the early 1800's. 
 Thank you! What can you tell me about their sports now? 
 There are or have been several national sports halls of fame in New York. The 1980 Winter Olympic Games were held there. That was the occasion of the Miracle on Ice game in which the American team beat the heavily-favored Soviet team and went on to win the gold medal against Finland. 
 Cool! I didn't know that. What else can you tell me? 
 One of the most famous tennis events is held in New York City. I don't have the name but it is one of the Grand Slam tournaments. New York also hosts two NBA teams and is geographically the home to the NFL Buffalo Bills. 
 Yes I know a few fans of the Buffalo Bills! Thanks for the great information. It's been very helpful. Have a good evening! 
 You, too!
