Very nice, but some of the internationals beat you to it. Is it any wonder
your map is to scale with my map of the UK (a miniscule 48 x 64 studs) j/k

Another borrowed idea. I just hope that there is enough resolution to
support the US population density - just look at South East England!
I'm now using three colours, Gold(3) dots to represent the two LEGO(r)
shops, and a gold square for LLW. Yellow(26) to represent a LEGO fan/Lugnet
user, and Tan(6) for multiple LEGO fans living so close to each other that
they cannot be seperated on the map.

Who is thrilled to see his idea expanded apon - if that is the case,
and equally impressed with your work if the idea was not 'borrowed'.
