How many Milletts are there?
My friend Steve, who I think spends all day surfing the net for really cool Web sites and tools (it’s kinda his job), found this one, where you can see the distribution of your last name across the United States. According to this, I am one of six Milletts living in Indiana. The greatest concentration of us is in Maine. It would be interesting to see the percentage of Milletts relative to total state population. I think the seven Milletts in Alaska account for a greater percentage than the six of us in Indiana.
Check it out, and then try your own last name! http://www.dynastree.com/maps/detail/millett.html

There are only 700,000 people in Alaska, so that means the percentage there is about 7 times higher than here. It also means the mayor of Indianapolis is more qualified for the presidency than is the governor of Alaska, at least based on the number of people governed.
