Susquehanna Depot, PA. Somehow worth a Wikipedia page, probably for our railroad history and for being B.F. Skinner's birthplace.

Friggin' place looked more populated back in the 1971 picture, but even then the railroad business looked pretty much done.

I hail from Ankara, the glorious capital of our republic.
However my real roots lay in Eskişehir where my paternal grandfather is from.
In terms of the poll, we're situated in Asia.

I grew up in north Dorchester, MA. Right on the line of Dorchester and Roxbury actually. And now I live in Dedham, MA which wasn't really much of a move. I would post pictures but everything in Massachusetts looks the same. Gray sky, shitty brick buildings, shitty roads, and a pissed off middle aged Irish guy. There you go, I just painted the perfect mental picture of the Boston area.

I was born in Connecticut, lived in (in no particular order) Wisconsin, North Carolina, South Carolina, West Virginia, and now Arizona. The place I live is dominated by Mormons and 'active senior living communities' for the snowbirds.

The Salt River is one of the nearby places that used to be fun to go before parks and recreation put fees at all the sites and a shit ton of restrictions.
I've been to the top of this mountain. It was a long climb and a fucking scary descent.

Born and raised in Kansas City, Kansas and only ever visited Missouri a couple of times. And no, I don't live on a farm though I have been to a couple in the past. I also haven't seen a tornado up close and personal and I have no plans to >.>

I live in Louisville, Kentucky, and have lived here most of my life. I was born in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, about 20 miles form Lincoln's birthplace. Louisville is home to the Kentucky Derby:

Hell of a party!

The University of Louisville, winners of the 2013 Sugar Bowl:

Outstanding!

And the 2013 NCAA Basketball championship:

Super outstanding!

I usually spend one to two nights per month doing this:

'The difference between a Miracle and a Fact is exactly the difference between a mermaid and seal. It could not be expressed better.'
-- Samuel "Mark Twain" Clemens

"I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the scriptures, but with experiments, demonstrations, and observations".

- Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else! "

- Dr. Donald Prothero
