Ahh.. I get 2nd and Boulder.

Which was neat, because I was looking for Tulsa anyway.

I know they keep saying we need connectors from the river to downtown and I'm seeing that unless you are in a car, there is no easy way to get from one to the other (I was thinking about walking.)

I got Hwy 75 and Peoria. But I have some extra tabs open. I'll try again with no extra tabs (Firefox)...

Google Earth takes you to Allen Fieldhouse at KU in Lawrence, because that really is the center of the Universe. (and because Google Earth was developed by KU grads)

I really enjoyed this article I read recently about Google and Coffeyville.
