Does anyone go to UNC at Charlotte, or know someone who does? It looks like the phone is directly in the middle of the campus, and if someone got that one, Escape would be 7/7.

She's waiting for further instructions. Are we supposed to give them to her? Has anyone called Dana's Number lately?

Some interesting stats on locations:

16 Axons located in Washington DC, more than any other city.

12 Axons in Utah, compared to 7 in New York (and none in any of the suburbs or smaller cities in NY, even Buffalo).

7 in NYC, 7 in LA, the two biggest cities - likely a Bungie 7.

6 in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area, NONE in Houston.

The Florida Axons are pretty odd. A couple in the Disney area, a couple on the Panhandle, one St. Petersberg (which is near Tampa) and one Ft Lauderdale (which is near Miami). None in Florida's largest city, Jacksonville. The Panhandle locations are pretty much just south of Dothan, Alabama, where there is another Axon

3 Axons in Lafayette, Louisiana, but NONE in New Orleans???

12 Axons in Utah but only one in Tennesee (in Memphis area, none for Nashville)
7 in Salt Lake City (including Sandy, UT, which is very close) but 1 in Atlanta (and one in Macon, but none in Savanna).

3 in Cleveland, none in Cincinnati

I notice there is a whole segment of the Atlantic coast being ignored, from Norteast Florida (Jacksonville), through Georgia (Savanna) and on to South Carolina (no axons at all). The NC Axons are somewhat inland, but Virginia Beach is represented (as is Ft. Lauderdale in lower-east Florida).

I'm not surprised that there is nothing in South Dakota, Wyoming, Alaska, Hawaii, Rhode Island, Maine, Vermont, Delaware, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and even Kansas, Kentucky, and New Mexico. But considering all the attention that Idaho gets (6 Axons), how is it that there is NOTHING in New Jersey???

I still think there is more to be learned about the placement of the Axons.

If I were a PM, I would take general location resolves from whois lookups of the senders of emails and find locations that overlap areas of high interest.

Are there any areas that recieved Axons that did NOT have a high population of interested people?

I would guess Alabama. There are 6 Axons in Alabama, and all of them are cold. I'm not sure, but I don't recall hearing from anyone there either. There are no notes about them on Aveeno's loc list. Hey Alabama, where are you guys? What happened??? Mobile? Dothan? Anyone?

Congrats on the Axon, and also to Rankin PA and Durham NC on getting theirs this morning.

New Jersey's pretty heavily populated. I guess you can say the whole state is in 1 hour driving distance to either NYC or Philly, but there was only one node in Philly - south Jersey got dissed, while Conneticut gets 3 nodes that are all still cold.

New England, I am looking critically in your direction right now... No hot Axons, 3 cold in CT, 2 cold in MA, and 1 cold in NH.

Which reminds me, 2 nodes on Cape Cod but none in Boston. They're closer to Providence, RI than Boston, just as Mancheter, NH is closer to Concord than Boston. I would imagine that either is at least 45 minutes away. WTF?

I'm in Mississippi (Mississippi State U) - all of the AL locations were prohibitively far for me to drive to. I thought about it.. but couldn't justify skipping work and driving up to try to catch a phone call. Razz My wife'd kill me. *chuckle*

This Axon is MUCH closer to DC than to NYC, seeing as how it's at the VA/WV border (right near the Appalachian trail) and not far from the Maryland border also. It's some ways NW of DC.[/b] Anyone tried it yet?



Not going alone, baby. At the end of some road near the West Virginia border... That's probably 2 hours from DC.

Distance Travel

The two spots on the cape are almost 2 hours from where I am.
I'm going to try to get to them on Sat if they are still hot, but I can't commit, because I may not be able to make it.

I'm hoping at on or about 7 days from the 24th, the coordinate positions change - otehrwise we may never get all of them. (Of course they could just start marking the cold ones as hot - but I'd hope they'd at least give us a chance.)

This seems like a good idea, although it might tell us nothing. Whoever's planning on activating an axon today, can you try this?

Also, does anyone know if any St Louis axons are still cold? I could try heating them up, I'm not far from there.

I live in Alabama, but I'm in Tuscaloosa and all of the Axons are way too far for me to drive. Sad

Looks like it was missed again today. I live in Greensboro, which is about an hour and thirty minutes (depending on traffic) away from Charlotte. I'd be willing to go down there tommorow, but I don't have a GPS device or anything so it would be kinda tough for me to find by myself. If anybody else is planning on getting a group together to go, I'd be happy to tag along.

*edit* The 14:35 for "hey_dad" in Charlotte was missed today too. Maybe we could hit that one too.
