Q9 .....

Or is it time to start asking things like "Is the box planted in a State
Park?" "Is the box planted in a Trustees Reservation property?" Etc..

Perhaps we should consider what the next three or four questions would look
like to see how we will approach this question. When we figure out the county,
will we then narrow down the town and cities in that county? Worcester and
Middlesex counties have numerous towns with Essex close behind. It seems the only
logical progression to me but I can't see how we will get anywhere before our
questions are used up.

At this point, we could stop looking at counties and look at towns. We could
ask if it is in a town beginning with letters A through M, for instance. That
might eliminate a lot more places more quickly. Is there a stats person around
on this list?!

I was thinking along those lines too. That's also why I started thinking
about State Parks...that would significantly narrow it. I think your
suggestion is a great one..I just don't have a lot of further guesses on it
right now. :-)

I missed out on asking the last question, but are we ready to ask for an
area - say, within a x-mile radius of [insert town name here]? Picking
the right town and the optimal radius could narrow it down fairly quickly,
don't you think? And hoping it's the randomly answered question!
