Dear T and other Spiders of inquiring minds.... Growing up as a real Southern hillbilly, accent and all, we used "each other" to mean two people interacting. Example: "They got each other a birthday present." More often, we would use "one another" in the same text. So...my take on the question - they are the same. Grammatically, I believe they are the same, but then, in the Blue Ridge "each other" could be a whole passel of cousins fighting with "one another." (Ummm, only two at a time) But then we weren't the best linguists coming down the pike.
