Check out NASA's world Wind - their version of Google Earth.

Not only travel around the earth, but help Glenn pick a spot for his new underground Moon base!!!

Cool -- I may get there before NASA does.  I wonder if we'll ever know for sure that it wasn't just a movie. :)

ORLANDO, Fla. (Feb. 6) - She was the Robochick. He was Billy-O. According to police, her obsession with him led her to drive 900 miles from Houston to Orlando, bringing with her a trenchcoat and wig, armed with a BB gun and pepper spray, and wearing a diaper to avoid bathroom breaks on the arduous drive.
When in doubt , build it stout with something you know about .

Depends, PEG, depends.

OK but I think I'll wait until she gets out of the restroom - Looks like she is still holding it. :)

Glenn,

I think I found the perfect spot for your underground Moon cabin:


Tsiolkovskiy Crater

lat=-20.16552
lon=128.51585





It has a ridge which comes up kinda of in the middle you can use for a lookout

Do you Navy people all look alike, PEG?  She kinda looks like she could be a relative of yours.

Hold on - I guess I have to give you the same advise you and John dish out:

Check with the local public servant to make sure you comply with all zoning / building codes.  Thats what they are there for!!    8-)

The man in the Moon?  He's the only resident I know of-- I hope there are no public servants there yet.  I'd hate to have to start off on the wrong foot. :-/
