If you are upset at the idea, Please hit the ''n'' key now. I am trying to compile a list of distances across america using a six pack as the standard of distance. Now I know that distances are relative, so before you start sending me your responses, I would like to ask for some other factors also. Standard template follows: 1) point A -> point B 2) distance (MILES) 3) distance (Six packs) 4) Sex 5) Weight 6) Comments about the trip. I hope that those who respond will include all necessary information (and comments too about it.) I will summarize for the net. I have some info on the east coast, especially when I was in college: Pennsylvania is 8 square Six packs in size. It is 2 six packs high and a case across. It takes two people to measure the lateral disatance since one is needed to drive and the other to measure. New York -> Boston is only about 1.5 Six packs. (This is due mostly to the amount of speed you can fly at in CT and MA). Boston -> Hyannis MA is a Six pack. Its not that far but rte 3 is two lane. This survey IN NO WAY condones drinking and driving. That is a personal choice of you the reader. Thank you for your time.
