August Travel Trivia: Are you a Maphead?
15 Questions
They walk among us, these slightly odd people. If there’s a map on an office wall, they can’t help drifting over to stare at it dreamily, with eyes slightly glazed over. They read road atlases not at truck stops when they’re lost, but for pleasure on a rainy afternoon at home. They have favorite and least favorite world map projections. (Mercator, boo!  Winkel Tripel, yay!) They are the world’s geographic elite. They are the mapheads.   Are you a maphead? We’ve asked 74-time Jeopardy! champion Ken Jennings to put together a tricky test of world geography knowledge so you can find out.
