Hey, folks, I'm working on a cartoon idea about the double entendre
names USGS gave to some quadrangles.  I have tried searching for them
myself, and have found a few, like "Potty Brown Creek, Colo."and "Wet
Bottom Mesa, Ariz.", but it seems an easier way to find them, and to
have fun on a Friday afternoon, is to query all of you, since you surely
are aware of the ones in your state.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jim
