That has to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen. That could be a really cool thing to help someone learn a route.

Cool Site! Nice one. I've marked the UPS Facility at Bury St Edmunds in the U.K. If your interested, search Bury St Edmunds. The town is also my daily route, well most of it. Try looping that  | |

Do you really think that the government is going to keep all their super secret stuff at such a well publicized site? It's all been moved to other areas. At least that's what I've been told by Zork and Klaatu. They're from Neptune and have been living in my shed for the last 3 months. They're waiting for a shipment of dilitium crystals to refuel their interplanetary shuttle. I hope that they leave soon because the neighbors are starting to ask about the green glow coming from my shed. Beam me up Scotty!
