Our familes will have to fly in from opposite ends of North America to our wedding in Berkeley (more details forthcoming when I get the website up and going). We wondered what the geographic average of their hometowns would be. The answer is a cornfield in Nebraska. (If you think the map is off, remember that the Earth is curved.) The closest town is Stuart and as much as I would like to stay for the Summer Stock Car Races for our honeymoon I’m pretty sure Susan would not go for it. Factoring in the overseas parent leaves us with an average somewhere in the middle of the Yukon; not a marked improvement either.
