Carson City, NV Sacramento, CA Salem, OR Olympia, WA Juneau, AK Honolulu, HI Boise, ID is pretty close, but I think its just a bit east of Los Angeles. -Gloftoe |

Depends on how far West you go... It gets a little slim over that whole Eurasia area, but it picks up again around Newfoundland.

I was wrong about hte date line thing though. While the islands do extend out farther than any other state, the Intl. Date Line zigs around the islands. If it ran along a single line of longitude then the islands would extend past it though.

Quoted: And which state other than Alaska has the longest coastline? I guess that it depends: FL or MI But aren't fractal coastlines infinite? |
