<div id="ygrps-yiv-712967813">on closer examination<br/>
the overwhelming majority of the hundreds of circle cities depicted by the<br/>
atlas of georgia & referred to in message 899 have evaporated into former<br/>
circle cities<br/>
since it now appears that only a small fraction of them have survived to<br/>
the present with their original boundaries intact<br/>
<br/>
the state totals are thus severely reduced from the earlier estimates<br/>
tho the medalists are probably still georgia & sc & nc  respectively<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
moreover the great majority of the surviving circles have been found to<br/>
have a radius of a mile or less<br/>
most of them much less<br/>
<br/>
only homer ga with a radius of about 9000 feet stands out from the group<br/>
<br/>
& the original example which i mentioned in the first great roundup of<br/>
circle boundaries<br/>
namely cole city ga with a radius of 2 full miles<br/>
remains unchallenged as the greatest<br/>
even tho it is curiously overlooked by the georgia atlas & the tiger server<br/>
& can be found only on the alflga topo<br/>
