I still have the browser window open with the blank results page.  It's been
open for well over 15 minutes now.  I'm pretty sure I'm not going to get a
map result, regardless of how long I wait.

Third time, still no answer(s).  I suspect that in my case, there are no
answers.  Although I've now lived in the Washington, DC area most of my
life, I was born and raised in the Deep South - to European parents.

 

It took me several attempts in both Safari and Firefox to get it to complete
as well.  I had to let the results page sit for about 30 seconds before
anything appeared.

 

The color contours on the generated map were darkest red in the areas where
I've spent the most time; the highlighted cities were Grand Rapids, where I
grew up; Detroit, where I've never spent more than a night; and Buffalo,
where I've never been.  I expected a little more New England flavor to my
results; I'm from Massachusetts, my mom grew up there and much of my speech
I took from her (enough that, when in a college linguistics class, the
professor wrote the words 'Stu' and 'stew' on the board, and I was the only
person in the room to say them differently; he immediately pegged me as
being from somewhere in New England.)
