RE: Where is they?

The correct collective plural would be:

Where they be at?

RE: Where is they?

In this part of the world it's common for people to say:

"They've came"

or

"They've went"

do you suppose that would be in reference to this guy, They?

RE: Where is they?

eh.. the guy was on All Things Considered last week,,, Sounded silly to me.. However he did invent that silly neon lighting people put on their cars....

In Bristolian (UK), one could ask "Where's They to?" of this gent.
