> I hope I have my geography right.

It was terrible. All you little Eastern states? Massachusetts is the 5th largest state in the union, and New York is the 3rd. Here in New Hampshire (9th largest), we'd have to travel 18 hours to see Darien at home and another 14 to see him at school.

So I don't know what the heck *you're* thinking.

(Heh -- my uncle lives in Fairbanks. Something he said while he was here over Thanksgiving was, "If Alaska were split in half, Texas would be the *third* largest state." Not sure if that's his or something commonly spoken up there, but I liked it.)
