Try it and tell me how you did w/o cheating or anything!
I want to know how foreigners did too, especially our Canadian neighbors.

My score was:
48 out of 50, average error 3 miles, 435 seconds

The two I missed were early on, Utah and Iowa, because they are landlocked. But I was really really close, like 3 pixels off.

I knew pretty much all the south from west to east coast, started screwing up with the mid-western states =/
