                        My pin's exact location is actually two streets east and five streets
south of my house, in a church parking lot. This thing is pretty
accurate! though with the google earth thing you can see the van in my
driveway and the broke-ass Subaru station wagon parked in the street.
And because of the Subaru I can tell the picture is at least two years
old, and it was taken in the winter since the grass is kind of brown.
With google earth you can zoom in further, and it's a higher resolution
because of that. In this the van is about 3x5 pixels, in Google Earth
it can get to about 10 times that big.

                        I only consider people from the Far East Asians.  Residents of Iran or other neighboring countries are considered Middle Eastern by me.  We have completely distinct culture and language.
China, Korea, and Japan form the core of Asia.  India has its own subcontinent, and they have their own unique culture.

                        Only a few pockets of Snarkpitters that aren't westerners. I propose some members relocate to the empty regions. :razz:
Damn you Gwilym! The least you could do is move to Africa. What if the
American Snarkpitters invade Europe from the south? And Reno I'm
sending you to an outpost in Greenland. Not as a listening post, I just
don't like you that much. :biggrin:
[edit: on closer inspection of frapper, what it REALLY needs are some 'Dad's Army' style animated arrows. :smile: ]
