I can see my house from here! ... I need to mow the lawn, aparently.

Also War, you rock.

Heh. Vorticus lives about ten miles away from me. I should give him some nice "cookies." 8)

If you live that close, you should come to sketch day!

You know some of those satellite pictures are like three years old, right

?

Though it's neat looking at my house and seeing trees that haven't been there for years

Should I be worried that I managed to guess STrRedWolf's location on the first try?

Considering he's got a unique marker and has his location listed in every post he makes, and you only "managed" to guess?

Probably.

Map has everyone who posted locations listed. Just a bump for anyone who was on holiday during the summer.

Dutch! · Post by **Dutch!** » Fri Sep 02, 2005 3:44 pm

Okies. I'm surprised the site I looked at actually gave me the data. Traralgon South barely shows up on a map of Traralgon South, let alone anywhere on the internet...

1. Dutch

2. Longitude: 146.54306 Latitude: -38.31083 That should put me somewhere deep in south eastern Australia if all goes well.

3. http://schoolspirit.comicgenesis.com

4. Traralgon South, Victoria, Australia

5. Use the one right there to the left. It's easier to get hold of.

Another way of getting a good fix on yourself is by first using the map to try find yourself and then using the "link to" option and then copying the url.

For some reason, it appears it gave me the wrong coordinates last time.
Here's the hopefully correct ones.

Those are still wrong. You're using the wrong set of numbers from the url.

EDIT: Ok, LIAs is fixed, and everyone else is added.

The List'll be outdated! I need to upgrade to Microsoft Access from Word.

Pimpette · Post by **Pimpette** » Mon Sep 05, 2005 2:35 pm

Aw crap, I seem to have given bad lat&long numbers =/
Not sure how to correct this so I am no longer living in Lake Ontario...

I find it disturbing that I was probably within spitting distance of Jim this past weekend and didn't even know it.

Not that I would spit on Jim.

Unless someone paid me to. (sorry, I'd do most anything for a buck)

Edit: and even more disturbing that there was a Branson banner ad while it was loading this comment the first time!

War, got one quick change - this gets you within a few dozen meters of my home, as opposed to a couple miles:

Lat: 38.73901
Lon: -90.38972

Thanks!
