h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

well, as far as i can tell, anyway. lol

my belief is that affy lives in one of those big square mid western republican states. you know, one of the ones nobody ever hears about - arkansore or wyoming or delaware or something. i have rather tenuous reasons to back this up. but affy, if anyone geusses right, will you tell them?

Living in one of those square - if hopefully-not-to-be-republican-much-longer - mid-western states, I personally think that Affy is a bit farther south. And my guess would be that the amusement part had six flags flying over it.

WM checking in from the Eastern Seaboard after a rather lengthy cable internet provider outage. That's some respectable backlog you all generated here!

I just checked the Six Flags website. There are a bunch of parks in the USA now a few abroad, also. So that narrows Affy's location down to... ummmm... well, never mind.

i was thinking either busch gardens or cedar point... i didn't even think of six flags!!!!! *off to research*

and i think affy would tell you if you guessed right... ut i'm not sure.

I think that he might tell the person who actually guesses, but I don't think that he'd say anything where anyone else might see.

Welcome back, WM. I had wondered where you had gone off to. And while there are many six flags, at least it narrows down the states that Affy could be in...

G7

well, there's still one in the state i was leaning towards....

You share one of my guesses then, sea.

Here, Spiny, try these on then.

G7, although Colorado is definately square, I'd hesitate to call it "Midwestern". I associate that area more with a phrase I've heard, "The Mountain West". When I think "Midwest", I think _flat_. Like Iowa.

hmmmm.... *considers teaming up with g7*

*considers getting together a big group of researchers to pool their knowledge*

Eastern Colorado is rather flat. Along the lines of Kansas. I am very glad that I live nearer the mountains. There's only so much plains that I can take at any given time.

G7

i've been to eastern colorado... it is VERY flat. not much to see... except the occasional cow

I've only been up the center, to about Denver.

What a grand idea, sea! Yes, I think that we must get people together to pool information.

I went to high school in a small city on the eastern plains of Colorado. And I missed most of the cows...

G7

simulpost!

well, let's see, my e-mail is [email protected] if you'd like to trade info now who else has been collecting affy info? GL has...

simulpost again!!!

They seem to be catching.

I'll have to wait till I get back to work to e-mail you, sea. That's where my notes are.

Arl, you say almost to Denver. Why didn't you get all the way up?

G7

sounds, good, g7. my notes are on my laptop, and i'm using the desktop at the moment. although now that i'm on here, i should look through some stuff that i've got saved...

Grand!
