A METAL MAP OF AMERICA

So on Friday night I got this e-mail from a reader calling him or herself (but probably himself) Darkplace Assistant:

Just a random idea that came to mind. It’d be kind of useful and cool to have a map of where the METAL stores are in whatever state you go to since there are so little of them.

And I agreed with Darkplace. (I assume we’re on a first-name basis now, me and Darkplace.) So I promptly dispatched a MetalSucks Mansion Monkey to the Neilstein wing of the Mansion with a correspondence* suggesting that we pursue this project, with the help of you, our faithful readers, of course.

And, hey, guess what? Vince tipped me off to the fact that there’s already a website, wheresthemetal.com, that provides this very service. You just enter the zip code you’re in, and it tells you where the closest metal shop is. For example, here’s a screenshot from when I entered the zip code of the Mansion:

Pretty sweet, right?

Give the site a once over now, and if you know of any local shops that aren’t coming up already, let us know in the comments section — we’ll pass the info along to the right people to have the store added!
