We will see. When the wife drags me on a trip to the US, we'll stay
for 2-3 weeks atleast and then there will be plenty of scouting.

That's the condensed version. In '88 I spend from May to October
scouting out the US west of Texas. I'd already poked around the eastern
states extensively.  It's a big place :)

 
This is the truth! And it will become bigger still, when Canada joins
the union! ;)

To say nothing of Greenland. I'm surprised Denmark got its hackles up. A
cash sale versus pouring in a few billion kroner a year? It must have
something to do with Denmark's long history of losing real estate; they
want to hang on to the little they have.

I was surprised when I read the suicide rate in Greenland peaks in the
summer. I guess it's easier to stay drunk in the winter without the light
hurting your hungover eyes.

I think it was Ernest Gann who talked about flying transports in WWII and
refueling in Greenland. The fjords looked all the same; pick the wrong one
and you were screwed.
