When I saw It, the caption was not future but early computer. I even sent it to UT for IOtD..... for which he slapped me about the head and shoulders.

Sometimes education is painful.

Cooler than GoogleEarth, higher resolution in a lot of cases.

I was able to identify individual cars from the parking lot at work.

It's that good.

It's clear alright. But the picture for my area is years out of date.

Well, heck...I can identify individual cars from the parking lot at work. Now, identifying individual cars from *space*. That's a good trick.

I had the same problem, Brian. Look in the upper left corner. You'll see "road" and then "aerial". Click on "aerial".

I want one of these. It's a small remote controlled drone. Spy plane. With video camera on board. The LAPD is beginning to use them to supplement expensive helicopters.


Of course, if everyone gets one of these, I may just have to research how to build a high powered radio signal jamming device. Not that I would ever build an illegal device like that.

That's for growing them with stunted stems and normal blooms. They're like kids....once thet're grown, it's too late.

Well, you could just take up kite-flying as a hobby. Kites as in fighting kites, with glass and metal coated strings. Think of it as a poor mans barrage balloon.
