I was excited to find a google map about Portland incorporating Simpsons' facts. But then I looked at it, and it barely skimmed the surface of all the great Groening history here.

What? You think Springfield, Vermont is that Springfield? It does seem that quite a few folks think that, but we (you, me and Peter DeFazio) know better.

So, I know some of you are bored at work, and I know a lot of you are google map wizards. PLEASE! Make a Simpsons google map that would make us Portlanders proud. And then comment here with the URL.

I'll publicize your hard work -- it'll be great. No really. Please!!

What, you don't know all the significance of Groening's naming principles? Here are some links:

Okay! Have it!
