Kinda annoying they used Google Maps, kinda hard to share the images.

Anyway, the religious map was interesting. It seems the "Bible Belt" isn't just a catchphrase, from Oklahoma to North Carolina.

Texas has Austin hipsters and Germans to thank for our levels. ;)

I agree, and why I had to just post a link instead of a pic. There are plenty that dont click links without at least a bit from the article, and they are quite right to be skeptical. From a technical perspective, there just isnt any way to embed a dynamic Google Map in a post.

Link is a keeper.

Bookmarked it.
