I just deleted duplicates for A.R. Cane, cashoe, and Nature’s Call. Looks like August West may have a misspelled stray “AugestWest” and JonScribe64 has two distinct addresses - that are very very close together, that I suspect may be in error. Leaving those for the time being.

The program took a little time to spot Oakham, Rutland, but now I’m there!  
I didn’t know there was an Oakham, Massachusetts…

I’m a little skeptical of the geographic accuracy of “Frappr.” It insisted I live in “Mississauga Beach,” a city that I don’t think exists, instead of Mississauga, a city of 700,000 people, and then put it somewhere east of St. Catharines. Oh well, it’s within an hour’s drive.

Evidently, joining and using a newish browser makes all the difference.

Ya know, I think we have all the makin’s for a kick-ass game of _Risk_. We just have to find a doper in Kamchatka.

I’m in (or on, however you choose to look at it). I think I put my picture twice, though?

I could have sworn that I had already been on this map, but, in any event, I’m on it now.
