I regard the shortest common boundary to be DE-PA. I do not take into <br/>
account broken state boundaries, like Fulton Country KY and <br/>
Tennessee. Why stop there? Why not go to southeastern VA and <br/>
northeastern NC? That dowel stick of land surely is narrower than <br/>
Fulton County, KY - TN.<br/>
<br/>
Thank-you for your efforts in trying to answer my questions regarding <br/>
the shortest and longest shared state boundaries. The answers, from <br/>
my layman&#39;s POV, are nothing short of amusing. I am sorry, but I <br/>
never intended to raise a question which would lead to discussions <br/>
and squabbles over measuring molecules and such. Enough! The answer <br/>
is OK - TX!<br/>
<br/>
Now let&#39;s see if there is an answer, fractal, molecular, whatever, <br/>
for the shortest &lt;portion&gt; of a shared state boundary. Is it NC-VA <br/>
near Mackay Island?<br/>
