An interesting postscript to our discussion of a central location:

I got an e-mail yesterday from a writer for Wired News.  He is writing about
the spot that is at the center of the Google map.  It turns out to be just
northwest of Coffeyville, Kansas, the place where I was born.  He contacted
me through the geocaching.com website after he saw that I had been
geocaching around Coffeyville.  He wants me to go out with my GPS, find and
describe that center spot - and take a picture.

However, I would still vote for the Black Hills for a campout spot - the
KS/OK border is great for winter camping and hiking, but too hot, humid and
buggy during the summer.
