I agree, it would be cool. I can't really point a finger at anyone for not producing this list, as I admitted in my previous post that I just don't have the time to fully participate in this thread. However I would be happy with even a rough list.

Asking for this list is like asking a no-mosque-at-ground-zero'er, "at what distance from ground zero would it be acceptable to build a mosque?" Until we quantify this, the "debate" (quotes used in reference to the ground zero mosque "debate") cannot continue, at least it can't continue down this path..
