Ummmm .... I think you mean "square miles."

3291 miles square would cover approximately all of the US and Canada.

The US is 3.2 MILLION square miles.


sigh

find a fourth grade math book, and look up the difference between "xxx
square miles" and "xxx miles square".

Er.
That is _exactly_ what he is saying. The title of this thread, is '3291
statute miles square', which would be 10830681 square miles. As he says,
this would cover the whole of the US and Canade, plus a bit over. He was
simply pointing out that the thread should really be entitled either 'about
58 miles square', or '3291 square miles', rather than the current title...

Best Wishes
