They live in underground tunnel colonies, like prairie dogs.

Ah. Thank you for clearing that up for me and for fixing it.


Holland's really smaller than Deleware? How big is Holland again? 41,500 square kilometers?

I've never been to Montana, but from what I've heard of it, it's just as boring as Wyoming and anything north of Denver in Colorado.

After checking the map again, I'm pretty sure Delaware is also smaller than Holland.

I did some Googling and it's not as bad as I thought. Nearly all the New England states are smaller than The Netherlands:

DC: 99 km2
RI: 2,709 km2
DE: 5,328 km2
CT: 14,358 km2
NJ: 20,295 km2
NH: 24,219 km2
VT: 24,678 km2
MA: 27,360 km2
MD: 32,134 km2
NL: 41,526 km2

NL = Netherlands

This is how exciting Montana, as well as Wyoming, Colorado, and some other western states are:

Well, you can find places like that In The Netherlands too, and we've got 16 million people here.

But I suppose almost the entire state of Montana looks like that.

See those 3 people in the picture? They're the entire population of Montana.

Anyway, Guam goes Bush. But do they even get an electoral vote?

Kansas City is in Missouri </font>[/quote]And in Kansas. It's like right on the border between Kansas and Missouri, so it counts for both states.

Why do you think it's called "Kansas City" if it's not in Kansas at all? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

And this might be the only time I say this, but L47 is right. That is essentially Montana. =O

^...Well, yeah, but let's go with my statement that part of Kansas City is in, believe it or not, Kansas.

And Colorado &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt ; Montana. ANY DAY.

It's true, Kansas City is in both states.
I'm going to ignore the irrelevant pot shot.

Guam doesn't get one unless Puerto Rico does too.

Off-topic: Wow that pic of Montana, looks like it could have been taken down the road from me.
