An artist named Kim Dingle asked teenagers in high school to draw the outline of the United States from memory. The result was… umm… interesting.

She observed that Florida appears in nearly every representation of the country, although very few kids included the Great Lakes; even Texas wasn’t guaranteed a spot. And a couple of those are so unrecognizable they could be inkblot tests or something.

Ahh, geography: apparently a lost art.
