+1 to this one.
On the 2000' definition- up by Heavener, Oklahoma, is "the world's highest hill", which they figure by having a 1,999' height and using the 2,000' definition. Of course, this is like having the World's Tallest Midget.
I believe there is a Bull Hill in Colorado that is over 12,000' elevation.
The highest point in the Arkansas Ozarks is lower than Lubbock, Texas.
