:dubious: Hmm, I think I’m going to have to ask for a cite. There’s no going “all over” there. You go through, you’re done.
Name a street. Name a store. Hell, name the dog.
Possible, but I have no memory of it.

During my freshman year of college, I spent two weeks on a tour of the island, staying in Havana and Cienfuegos. I’m pretty sure lalenin never set foot in some of the Cuban buildings I entered.
My maternal grandparents lived for a time in Mayville, North Dakota. It’s a county seat and home to a college, so it’s certainly possible (but still not that likely) that a Doper other than me has been there.
The Texas Death Chamber, Walls Unit, Huntsville, Texas.
Howsabout the tiny hamlet of Hilda, SC?
That’s what you think.
By the way, you’re out of orange juice.
The bottom of Grand Gulch, UT? Undisturbed Anasazi ruins all over, but a little hard to get to (or out of).
Brazzaville, Congo Republic?
Or the more popular Kinshasha, Republic of the Congo, formerly Zaire, formerly Leopoldville, Republic of the Congo.
And if you want to get picky, Louvanium University (not sure of spelling) outside of town, though Og knows what it’s called now.
BTW. Tom Swift Jr. was in Leopoldville, on his way to the Caves of Nuclear Fire.
I wonder if any Doper has been to or stayed a night in Arisaig, Scotland, I would guess at least a few have been to **Mallaig ** to catch the ferry. There might be a few more villages and towns that I alone of the dopers have visited.
In Florida, I doubt anyone has been to Little Gasparilla Island.
I doubt that anywhere in NY/NJ area is unique to me, though I wonder about Boonville, NY.

Copperopolis, CA is the best I can do, I think.
I’ve been to Beaune.
How about Felch, MI? You take Hwy 69, and it’s right past Creamery Road. I kid you not.
I think I have a winner. I don’t even know for sure where I was. If you look at a map of South Korea, there’s a city on the south west coast called Mokp’o.
Heck, Mokp’o might be a winner. But, if you get on a ferry and ride 3 hours, you get to a small island where about 50 people live. I may be the only caucasian to ever set foot on the island, but there’s no way to be sure.
How specific can we be? I was thinking there is a pretty small group of people who have been in the robot cells in the paint shop of Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Detroit Michigan… Just me, a couple of other engineers, the electrician and the robot techs.
Or maybe the top of one of the dirt piles of one of the rock quarries here in Olathe Kansas (I think Johnson County Aggregate is the name of the quarry). It just so happens to be one of the highest points in the city and a great place to be during the fireworks show.
I have. Have you stayed a night on the Fair Isle ?
How about Swarmsville, NY?
or Franklinville, NY
Wellsville, New York?
I’d actually be really interested to swap stories with anyone who’s been there. It’s where all my family grew up and lives (but none of them are on the Dope).
No, I haven’t you are safe from me. I am surprised by Arisaig, we spent a day there, but I figured at best, people would just drive through it on the way to the Ferry. I know the Scottish population of dopers is fairly low and this was a sparse section of Scotland, as opposed to Inverness or even Findhorn.
We stayed on the grounds of a wonderful castle, that is now a hotel. The old Gatehouse was a B&B and had use of the Castle Grounds and Beach. It was one of my favorite places I have ever been.
I look forward to returning to Scotland some year soon.

The biggest place with a name so far?: Kyrgyzstan.
I can’t be 100% positive, but I think I was on that island back in the 1960s.
I’ll bet no one has been to Bucksnort, South Dakota or to Tea, South Dakota. For that matter, I’ll throw in Mission Hill, South Dakota and Gayville, South Dakota.
I’ll even toss out Red Oak, Texas or Rockett, Texas.
Pendennis Castle I would guess. Maybe Charlestown, one of the oldest ports in England.
I’ve been to Beaune, also. Isn’t it where they process a lot of chickens?
