JD>>>> I believe you meant I-75 rather then I-85 :)

ML>>> yup... i had started to do all three, 95, 85 and 75 but realized
ML>>> that 85 is just a short one that doesn't go from top to bottom like
ML>>> the others do ;)

JD>> I'm still trying to figure out why I-4 is an interstate, because it
JD>> is wholy contained within the state of Florida.  Goes East/West

ML> don't be confused by the term "interstate"... it doesn't always mean
ML> "existing or carried on between states"... in this case, it is the term
ML> used for "The Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and
ML> Defense Highways (commonly known as the Interstate Highway System,
ML> Interstate Freeways, or simply the Interstate)" which is "a network of
ML> controlled-access highways that forms a part of the National Highway
ML> System of the United States."

ML> as for I-4, there are apparently 17 others like it...

Interesting.  I wonder, do they all connect between two different Interstate
Highways, like I-4 does between I-96, and I-75?
