This is clearly not the optimal road trip, since it passes through Nebraska.

  But it does go on US2 in Montana, which is one of my criteria for an "optimal" trip through US. But insofar as Nebraska is concerned, I have relatives there, and during one family reunion, we all went to the 4th of July parade in Hoskins. The large painted sign said "Parade at 8 am, pancake breakfast at 8:30". Not a large town. But then I grew up 6 miles outside of a town of 3000, so I am not all that in favor of large towns.

  Also Indiana, for its eateries may now legally refuse to serve customers that use machine learning for religous reasons.

    This is presumably not the intended parsing of that sentence, but "machine learning for religious reasons" sounds like a great premise for a sci-fi novel.

      Expect 2015-2017 to have a number of AI/ML-themed movies as screenplays are likely now making the rounds.

    Or any state which still has the death penalty, that actually KILLS people, even teenagers in some cases, including gays. But I guess that's not as glamorous as the latest popular cause...

  Nebraska is a great place for driving really fast. One time while passing through on my way to Montana I hit 130 mph in my Integra. I don't really have anything else to say for Nebraska.

  Which is a great place to drive through listening to Bruce Sprinsteen's Nebraska album (I know I did).
