I figured it was probably metro.  The two projects cited for Atlanta are near me, definitely in the city.  I was pondering how many concrete trucks are needed for a building near us, they had two on site and four more lined up.  Maybe they run 50 a day?  100?  It's a two tower project 40 and 36 floors.

That's a fun list, I don't know what the CH team is.  Minnesota?

Thanks, I guess that one will stand forever.  Holy Cow.

May be an image of football and text that says '0-3 0-3 N 0-2 TEAMS THAT GEORGIA HAS A LOSING RECORD AGAINST (MINIMUM 2 GAMES) Ptt 0-3 A A 25-42 N 14-18 2-3 1-2 WE ய 1-2 1-2 1-4 SDS'
Georgia could play games this season against Maryland, Nebraska, Wake and Houston and erase those immediately.

Yeah, another good way of showing how our individual preferences influence such things.  I'd include the states in the middle of the country before say Idaho, but I like mountains.

I disagree with a lot of this list.

Top 10 States Voted as the Most Boring to Visit in the U.S. by Americans (msn.com)
Basically every state is worth visiting. I suppose if one wanted to give the clickbait list some credit, 10 states would have to be the “most boring.” But it remains a pointless exercise.

Which ten would be most interesting is more interesting, interestingly.

Yeah it's obviously clickbait and not worth a serious discussion.  Also seems targeted largely at the midwest, so it smells of some coastal snobbery.

They are also wrong about Wisconsin's geography. Very wrong.

Are you saying a poll could be influenced by folks living where most folks live?

Agree.  I like history and scenery so my ten most interesting states to visit might be:

Alaska
Hawaii
New York
Massachusetts
Pennsylvania
Virginia/Maryland (Washington DC)
Colorado
California

Well, I'm saying that people who live where most folks live don't know dick about what they're talking about, as bf pointed out.

That is close to my list as well, I think.  I might swap NC for PA.  Wyoming would get a thought or three.
