Time once again, folks, to test your geographic brain power in our newest "Where in the World?" Our question: In which city (pictured right) is the world's largest manufacturer of windshield wipers headquartered?
Finally, here's a look at the results of our previous "Where in the World?" in which was asked which North American town is considered "the Cradle of Aviation"? As of Aug. 28th, here's how the voting stood:
- Kitty Hawk, N.C.: 34.8 percent
- Hammondsport, N.Y.: 32.6 percent
- Canton, Ohio: 13.6 percent
- Wrightsville, Pa.: 12.5 percent
- Baddeck, Nova Scotia: 6.5 percent
The correct answer? Hammondsport, N.Y. Thanks for participating. And the voting goes on for all installments in our "Where in the World?" archives.
Copacetic clicking,
