I don't think I saw that, no. I can understand Ross's position, though. Usually I get to the three minute mark and I'm short by two states; which two seems to change every time, but I have to sit there and pound my head until the last two come loose. I'm happy if I can hit all fifty in less than five minutes.

I don't know how people do it with lists. I have to mentally walk across the map of the United States, filling in names as I go, so all of my lists run north-south west-east (I start with Alaska, then Hawaii, then Washington, and so on). Just having a list of names doesn't tell me where any of the states are.
