Footnotes ...

<1>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Satans Kingdom) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Satans Kingdom.
