	Forgot to mention that territories and districts, IE Yukon or washington DC, are bonus answers, and won't make border states appear.

	Giving bordering states helped a lot. I don't know many in Mexico, but were able to move step-by-step southwards by typing in the free answers.

	Typing Michigan doesn't make Illinois or Minnesota appear. Typing Illinois doesn't make Michigan appear. Typing Minnesota doesn't make Michigan appear. Considering that Michigan borders both Illinois and Minnesota, these are a few errors in the quiz. Source: http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/6152/bordeso.jpg

	Typing Ontario correctly makes Ohio and Pennsylvania appear, but typing Ohio doesn't make Ontario appear, and typing Pennsylvania doesn't make Ontario appear. Quiz needs more work.

	Illinois only borders Michigan across lake Michigan, and I don't count lake borders, only land and river borders. I checked a couple Verified state border quizzes, which don't count lake borders either. I'll edit ontario to make it consistent with this, since it only borders Ohio and PA on Lake Erie. Thanks for the tips.

	I am not clear why river borders count but lake borders don't count. When I sail the 6.5 miles from Pelee Island (Ontario) to Isle St. George (Ohio), I cross an international border, which means that Ohio and Ontario share a border, and I have to even go through customs. Is this less meaningful than the fact that Texas borders four Mexican states on a river?

	The difference is that rivers are crossed by bridges, creating an artificial land connection. You can walk across the mississippi river, on a bridge.

	Would you accept just "newfoundland" for "newfoundland and labrador"? That's usually what the whole region is referred to as.

	British Columbia doesn't come up after typing Alberta despite them sharing a border. Other than that, great quiz!

	I'm confused why the headings for the columns are "State/Territory" if Nunavut, NWT and Yukon Territory aren't accepted as full-fledged answers.
