At the time I was fascinated about the Eastern bloc. Talking of which I do find it amusing that so many Americans consider Biden and co to be commies. Nowhere near.

@Bill Bill Let me turn the temperature down here. Believe it or not, I was a very conservative Republican once upon a time. And while I haven’t been either of those things for years, I’ve always had a lot of sympathy for folks who feel like people on the coasts look down on them (sadly, many of them do), or that the country doesn’t value them anymore, or is changing too fast. Frankly, I bet we’d get along in “real life”. But nobody stole the election. The Russians didn’t hack into voting machines in 2016, and Democrats didn’t commit voter fraud this year. In a democracy, sometimes the other side wins. It’s just how it goes. And by the way, when we take a minute to remember that the other side is also made up of human beings who love this country too, life starts to get better. Be well.

@Bill Bill Dude, Biden didn’t hold rallies, because there’s a pandemic going on. And most Democrats didn’t think Trump was going to get 10 million more votes or whatever than he did last time, but he did. Clearly, the two sides just do not understand each other, and don’t seem to want to, and it genuinely makes me sad. The left calls the right racist, the right says the left hates America, and as someone who has been on both sides, I know both sides are wrong. And by the way, elections in this country are remarkably secure, partly because they’re really decentralized, but mostly because there are some damned good people who make sure they run well. I was a Republican poll watcher for years, and I promise you, this country is really good at counting votes accurately. I wish people on the far left and the far right would stop crying fraud every time they lose an election. It’s not true, and it hurts the country. The truth is, you win some and you lose some.

There are so many trees that people get lost or die up here all the time. People are always amazed because when they think of California they think of LA or SF. But there's a whole other state that is not those places. Our biggest event is a 3-day rodeo and cowboys come from all over the place. There are a lot of ranchers and farmers.

My family had a topographical relief map on the wall about 3’ x 2.5’ that showed the tri-county area. But the road surveys were from the 60s, so it showed certain stretches of rural interstate that were merely an undivided highway road that hadn’t been upgraded yet, and city limits highlighted in yellow were much less expansive; it also had a key which showed the population brackets for the various text sizes and boldness of city names; it was cool to see which cities and towns were within each population bracket at that time. My folks then started getting the various other maps that fit around it to form a giant tessellation of continuous topographical relief maps that spanned half the state and took up a whole wall in my bedroom! Not to mention I could run my fingers along the mountain ridges and valleys! Way. Too. Cool.

I am as interested in maps as you. When I was younger I would bury myself in atlases, too. I still collect road and topography maps along my travels.

I have watched several of your videos. As another Map Nerd who works for my National Mapping Agency, I say well done Sir. Thematic maps are so incredibly useful.
