Can you draw all 50 states from memory?

Time State Map

Per Betteridge's law of headlines and also the map above, my answer is clearly no. You can try it yourself here...you draw them one at a time and it adds them to the map automagically. I'm going to blame my trackpad use a little, but I'm not sure I would have done much better had I drawn with a pencil and looked a map beforehand.

Update: Your periodic reminder that Senator Al Franken can draw all 50 US states from memory with astonishing accuracy.

His US map is one of the best hand-drawn maps I've seen.
