Yeah, it's nice to zoom in from space (or from someone else's house on another continent) and see where exactly the person is in their country.
Also, if you have the BBS markers switched on you can learn all about nearby places of interest. There are some beach-cams set up near my house, if you go in via google Earth.

Re: Where do you live? (CSM Targetting Priorities)
You really should provide a link to google maps for those who don't have the extra software.

You mean google earth? It's earth.google.com - if you don't already have it, download it now- it's incredible. |

No.
I mean provide a nice link that is clickable from anywhere just like everybody else in the thread is doing.
(Besides, they don't let us download programs from the CSM fire control room.)

Yeah, it does look like north america. If you streatch your imagination a bit, north of the Nechacko River (that's the smaller one that runs west/east) 'could' be viewed as Canada.
I leave the BBS markers on all the time. All sorts of cool stuff shows up. Like all the live web-cams all over the place. Including 3 at Ground Zero in NY.
