      This map deserves to be moved from another CS thread into here. 50% of the US population resides in the shaded counties:

        Indy's correct; the map should be here.

          I'm surprised Utah County made the list and that certain states don't have any counties. Louisiana is probably the biggest surprise. I can't see any blue in there.

            A game to test those who may wish to bomb Damascus. Among Americans, most can't get within 100 miles; some are bombing Africa or even India. I was 35 miles off.

              LA may have had one shaded 10 years ago.

                I made it in Syria - just didn't realize Damascus was so close to the coast.

                  Same here, 75 miles off. At the point that you know where Syria is, I bet you would look at the map to bomb the correct city.
                  I wouldn't expect the average person in Europe to know where St. Louis was exactly located.

                    66 miles off. If they'd used a pointer instead of a grabber I would have nailed it (that seems like a pretty big programming error).

                      89 miles. That big palm did me no favors. I know where it is and couldn't get the target on top of it.

                        I only post my results in these kinds of threads when I do well on the test.

                          I got 110. But I didn't see the zoom button. I thought to myself what a dumb game when you can't even zoom in.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                              29 miles. No, I did not cheat.

                                12 miles.

                                We have bombs that destroy everything over a 12 mile radius, right?
