Illinois isn't flat

[Max Rockatansky]

I was just passing through West Yellowstone, Montana.  Given the City is a flat valley the rest the state by proxy is also flat.

Some rolling hills and plains doesn't make it "not flat" .

Of course it does.

So is any state flat then?

Evening news flash; Illinois is still flat.

Lots are.

Nah, Illinois is still flat.

Nope,look at the map I put in the video, that should be enough proof on its own.

It's flat, you took video in the one county that isn't completely "flat" because its the Driftless Area. OVERALL, this state is flat

There's more than one county that isn't flat. Here they are of the ones I've visited in addition to the ones I've mentioned in the video

Bond, Boone, Bureau, Champaign, Clark, Clay,Clinton, Cook, Cumberland, DeKalb, DuPage, Effingham,Fayette, Gallatin (have a video proving this), Jackson , Jefferson, Jersey, Kane, Kankakee, Kendall (video coming soon proving this), Lake, LaSalle (have a few videos already proving this),Lee,Logan, Macoupin, Madison, Marion, McLean, Monroe, Putnam, Saline, Sangamon, Shelby, St. Clair, Washington, Wayne and Will

Let me emphasize the word overall...

OVERALL..... the state is flat. Yes you may find a few hills (Driftless region in NW Illinois), river valleys (Illinois River Valley, Fox Valley, etc), and the moraines surrounding Lake Michigan in the suburbs of Chicago (parts of Cook, DuPage, Will, etc), but ON AVERAGE, this state is pretty flat. 

Probably not going to change your mind since you're also the same person fighting an endless war about road quality in WI, so whatevs

There are only 3 things certain in life: Death, taxes, and Illinois's flatness.

There are hills outside of those areas though.

A cornstalk that is 3 centimeters taller than the cornstalks that surround it does not in fact constitute a hill.

Why do I feel like this is a line straight out of a kernals12 post?

Yes. West Virginia is flat because flat is not flat, so therefore not flat is flat.

As I stated in the spinoff "opposite" thread ... this deceased equine has been beaten until it's flat.

Illinois is flat compared to most states. But it's not 100% completely geometrically flat.

Not at all what I was going for, but now that you pointed it out I can't unsee it 

I must have inadvertently quoted that out of the OP of the latest thread about the newest groundbreaking {insert some material or technology} of the month and how it'll completely change the game for {insert some transportation or development-related policy}
