That’s probably a title I should have saved for another post, but I’ve already gone and used it for this great National Geographic project asking US Senators to draw maps of their states from memory. I grew up with maps on my wall – this is where we live now, this is where we used to live, this is where [relatives] live, etc. – and can draw a terribly accurate map of the US from memory, and could probably draw a pretty decent map of the world from memory, too (tho’ I’ll likely screw up pieces of Central Asia and parts of Africa’s Atlantic coast).
