Hi,

I am having trouble with a trivia question.

I don't understand it. Here it is---

"A DenverDenver Dover Augusta+R, per USPS, is a huge ____."

Would anybody explain it to me?

I know the USPS is the "United States Postal Service", but I don't understand the rest.

I've searched & searched to no avail.

Thanks for any help.

I'm thinking this out as I type, and it might help to know the context...but USPS abbreviations might be the answer.

So, DenverDenver = Coco (Denver Colorado, Colorado = CO)

Dover is in several states - Delaware (DE), Massachusetts (MA), Vermont (VT), New Hampshire (NH)

Augusta+R = GAR (Georgia = GA)
or MER (Maine), MOR (Misouri)

Okay, so I'm going with Coco-De-Mer, which is apparently a large fan palm (tree), and also produces nuts!

Thanks for the help...

That makes sense...

I just noticed something else...

The cities referred to are all state capitals...

So the answer is definitely COCO DE MER...

I kept thinking that this was some sort of specialized USPS code or something...

Thanks again...

No worries - I missed the state capitals bit totally though!

Way to go, ing! I'm impressed.

When I see things like that, my palms get sweaty and my heart palpates.

Thanks vendome - I have to confess that I have a printed list of the USPS codes sitting by my computer because of Minch's series of quizzes!
