Failure to include that lk, which is needed to identify the name of the island the town is on, was a grievous error: some, and perhaps many, islands lie within the county we already mentioned, are mere entirely within a larger county, but Long Island is not only grossly elongated, but bigger in area than, I'd wager, the (island-strewn but non-insular) state of Rhode Island that's across Long Island Sound from it. The only LI county most folk can name is the one coterminous with the Borough (NYC) of Queens; those living close enough may be aware that its adjacent borough, DaBrahnks, is non-coincidentally conterminous with Kings County. (If you're curious enuf, see also Duchess County and Dukes County (Massachusetts). Anyway...)
