That one's a beaut!  And you're entitled to the 1608.  I notice 
Massachusetts didn't even try to claim first-Europeans status, and 
cut right to 1776, where no one can dispute its importance.

My state's design is pretty contemporary.  True, Camel's Hump, the 
mountain featured in the background, has been around since the 
glaciers left, and people have been tapping trees for hundreds of 
years, but that jacket he's wearing looks distinctly like Gore-
Tex.  ;-)
