Courts - Chief Justice Roberts claims two home towns

Does it depend on where he is speaking? This story today from the Buffalo News by Jay Rey is headed "For chief justice of the U.S., it's a treat to be 'back home'." It begins:

U.S. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. on Tuesday returned to the city where he was born, engaging a Canisius College audience on a variety of Supreme Court topics, from his style as the 17th chief justice to changing technology in the nation's highest courtroom.

The son of a former Bethlehem Steel executive, Roberts, 55, left the area as a second-grader when his father was transferred to Indiana. Tuesday, he thanked the Buffalo community for his warm welcome "back home."
