I finally got a map . . . I think the site shares load problems

I also adopted Jeff's strategy of selecting responses based on choices
I would have made growing up rather than usages I know about based on
where I now live. I could probably manipulate choices to locate myself
elsewhere. But I've already spent too much time on that site!
So the site placed me squarely (and correctly) in Detroit. (The night
before Halloween question is an easy give-away.)
My secondary cities reveal much about my years living in the south.
My daughter's map was interesting. Between listening to me, growing up
in Pensacola, grad school in the Midwest, and four long-term
residencies in France, her map is quite ambiguous and located her in
three cities where she has never spent more than 3 months. It thinks
she is a Washington, D.C. / Baltimore girl. :-)

The program placed me in Worcester MA, Boston MA, or New York
City, which I hear is located in the state of New York.
(I find the latter odd because I don't know of a Tennesee City or
a North Carolina City or a South Carolina City. And I thought
Southern naming conventions were repetitive. But I digress.)
Interestly, my daughter was identified as being from either
Boston, Worcester, or Springfield MA.
