Going through this site again - just checked out the LA lens, really thorough. Have you considered grouping the cities by country? Maybe it's on here and I missed it? Just a thought. Thanks again for all the great work!

[in reply to ruilevi] Your lens is fine. It just didn't fit the group. I only include lenses on specific cities or aspects of a city. If you make some lenses about a single city, as opposed to a whole country, please feel free to submit them. I'd love to have them in SCG.
