Actually Bob has taken pictures of the road, video pictures, and quite
nice I might add. There are others that have posted some here as
well.

Of course. Do you think MOST riders stop in the best, twistiest, most
enjoyable parts of the roads they are rding in order to take photos of
the road? I don't. I think most riders stop at gas stations,
convenience stores, intersections, restaurants, hotels, scenic
overlooks, turnouts, and the like, and then think about taking
pictures.

No one is perfect, Krusty. I'm intitled to be a little paranoid once

"Just cause you are paranoid doesn't mean they are not out to get
you."

;-)

j/k

As cameras get smaller and cheaper, they will be everywhere. It will
get more difficult to be alone.

Or - maybe not.

These features are also available on the windows "Local.live" mapping
program. It is interlaced with some advertising for travel services,
but if you stick to the maps it is totally wonderful.

Nice to see Google using the same quality engines. I just love
looking at maps, and these online versions with roads, terrain (from
satellite photographs), and then the hybrid combo is just amazing.
Seeing the landforms of nature from varying perspectives really seems
like a miracle of technology.

yup, I noticed that too. the day before I was trying to find my sister's
house and I had commented how it was too bad there was no elevation lines.
I guess the guy upstairs was listening. ; > ) Thank-you

Google Earth is another program that may be interesting to find stuff on.

Can you simply tell if Runescape is a great game maplestory powerleveling or not without you becoming a member? The answer to that would be, NO! Well you can make a few predictions about Runescape and see the moral of the game when being a regular user and not a member but becoming a member brings a whole lot of additions to Runescape that you would never see if you were not a member. Being a member of Runescape has so many benefits and I will try to list them all here for you. Runescape tells you them, but I'm going to detail it a few features for you here. runescape money

Google earth works better for me.
