Good Morning America just said that they had some experts decide on 7 wonders of the US and that the list will be unveiled sometime in May. Neil Tyson was one of the experts, and from the teaser they showed, it looks like the KSC is on the list.

Does it appear that they mix natural and human-made wonders, or that
they went just for human-made things?

The Seven Wonders of America

1) Its a wonder our language is still called English.
2) Its a wonder we haven't killed each other yet.
3) Its a wonder the world still puts up with us.
4) We still wonder why people vote for either political party.
5) Its a wonder that we haven't kicked California out of the Union.
6) Same for Texas...
7) Its a wonder that so many people in the world whine about everything we do, yet when the excrement hits the fan, we're the ones still expected to cough up the most help...

It's amazing that we haven't left the union.

Amen

seven wonders of America--I guess I'd go for:

Grand Canyon
Hoover Dam
New York City
Mount Rushmore
Kennedy Space Center
Moana Loa
Carlsbad Caverns

The seven wonders of America appear to include one in Canada, one in Brazil, and ten in Peru!

Of course.
They are all part of the Americas.

The two American Continents are more than just the USA.

Whoops---mea culpa---mis-read the site's intent; apparently the regions listed show only which proposed 'Wonders of the World' are located within their boundaries, not the Top 7 of each.

I have a strange feeling about this... Deja vu. I recall seeing a website
several years ago with a long line of square thumbnail images of candidates
for the list of "Seven Wonders of ..." wherever it was. I think visitors to
the page could vote. All I remember is that I looked at a few of the
enlarged pictures, and I didn't vote. Seems to me it might have been
"Seven Wonders of the Modern World", but included the Egyptian pyramids
(since, unlike the other ancient wonders, they still exist), and I found out
about the website from a link right here on BAUT.
