I thought this was a fantastic answer. I can hardly imagine all the work that went into answering this question, both by Laser Jock and yayfulness. Congratulations on a job well done. I noticed both received Editor's Choice and they both deserve it. I was fascinated by yayfulness' video, and Laser Jock's interactive graph.
I do have a little question about it, though. In the video yayfulness mentioned that Laser Jock's answer showed which meetinghouse was the longest distance from a temple. Looking at yayfulness's video I thought the answer should have been Mumbai, India. I was a little surprised when Laser Jock said Goa, India. To me Mumbai looks further from Hong Kong than Goa. But I cannot really tell from the maps.
Anyway, good job.
