Actually got the states all in the right place, but putting them in the middle with no reference points is a bit hard.

It would seem, therefore, that the three human impulses embodied in religion are fear, conceit, and hatred. The purpose of religion, one might say, is to give an air of respectibility to these passions. -- Bertrand Russell

I suck, 90%, error 33 miles, 472 seconds
My excuse is that I grew up in another country. And have bad coordination.
Second time through, 90%, 19 miles, 378 seconds.
Third time through, well I'm not improving...

82 % 27 miles but want to whine about it
when your first several choices are colorado, arkansas your milage rate is going to be way off. Conversely if you get border states, and several aligned states your original milage losses shrink rapidly. thanx, bill

Don't be so sure, there's only six states.
Two of which are 'Western Australia' and 'South Australia'. Wonder where they'd go on the map? :)
