The Great Convexity (Yes, Convexity)

This is awesome, thanks for posting it. I've been thinking of the Concavity/Convexity in terms of the concavity or convexity of the site itself - ie; the USA might tend to think of it as just a hole in the ground, even if it's become so full of waste and trash that it is actually a mound. But now I realize it's obvious that you could apply the same language to the territory redistribution - like whether you think it's a chunk of land scooped out from the map (USA) or a chunk of land plopped onto it (Canada)

Nice work. I always thought all of Vermont and New Hampster were gone.

Thanks for the visual. And the blood- or glitter-spattered Concavity. Nice touch.

I did this map a while ago: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8& ... d314ae&z=6

Mostly seems similar, but why did yours go so much more west? still looking for more hints to refine mine.

Aha! you are indeed correct! also found this:

Which puts it neatly at Niagara falls. My map is updated now.

People would really ask questions if we had that map on our IS t-shirts.
