2. In what metropolitan area is it?

Fantastic, Hal!

Absolutely correct, for two points.

Funny, when one zooms out and honking big lunar-looking craters start to appear, the possibilities are indeed narrowed down a bit.

The standings:
  1. Hal, 38 points
  2. steinhenge, 24 points
  3. Dave W., 8 points
  4. bngbuck, 7 points
  5. Hawks, 5.5 points
  6. lorddix, 4 points
  7. AnthroGeek, 3 points
  8. Randy, 3 points
  9. R.Wreck, 3 points
  10. sailinsoul, 3 points
  11. Simon, 2 points
  12. Chippewa, 1 point
(Ties are listed in alphabetical order.)
