> I was thinking the same thing, Declan. I think you can never understand these states unless you read something about their history. I still think Indiana has no right to be so far East. Frankly, this map is completely different from the one I have in my head.

Personally, I agree. Many states are NOT where I put them last time I checked. I know, for instance, that Nebraska was much easier to find. I don't think I ever did find it on this quiz -- if I did, it was certainly an accident. Colorado was supposed to be much closer to California. And I distinctly remember the Dakotas being a bit more southerly...
Oh, well. At least I remembered which was Mississippi, and which Alabama -- and I even found Oklahoma first try. Thanks to the panhandle...
