Christ, I just looked at the map. Forget all that stuff I posted up there, just shoot a line somewhere near New England. ---

Put me down for Phoenix, AZ, **Demo** (or Gilbert if you want to be anal about it). Also, **Padeye** lives in Phoenix, and **jadailey** lives in the Phoenix area. I don’t think they’ll be too ticked at me if I mention them here. ---

Okay, I’m in Dallas, Texas. There are several of us here, but they can decide whether they want to be in the map, but how could they not? This is a really cool idea, **Demo**. Much easier than searching through posts and threads. ---

OK, I found a bigger map than the current one, so I’ll be working on this tonight. I figured I could do the little star/dot thingy, with the mouseovers telling who all was there, then I’ll make another page just listing the names in alphabetical order, with locations. Howzat sound? ---

Since I moved here in ‘89 I’ll bet the population has doubled. And we just got an Applebee’s and a Caribou Coffee for cryin’ out loud! ---

Pilot, North Carolina, pop. 120 ::: chorus of _ **Where?** _ About 25 miles east of Raleigh. If you’re working this with a roadmap, pick a point a skosh (two miles) northeast of where US 264 joins US 64. ---

Hey Poly, I once lived near a small town in NC named Zebulon. I was in the country a few miles from a place called Pearce’s Corner. Used to drive into Raliegh to work at the News and Observer. ---
