If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again.

And if that doesn't work, cheat.

Okay - another question lazily copied from QI... how many American states don't have a border with a straight line?

no idea but there are varying degrees of straightness.
i'd guess that the canada alaska border is straight as nothing of interest/use is anywhere nearby but all those in continental usa are slightly jagged.
so 49? altually i'd better take hawaii off too.
48?

Bit of a shit question really. Soz folks.

The answer is supposedly 1 - Hawaii - but UP is right about different levels of straightness.

I'll retreat back to my palace and let him ask the next question.
