Miscellaneous Uses of Maps

You can learn a lot from maps.

I see UFO activity has been fairly light in Washington state, just a couple of sightings; a black orb leaving the earth near Lynnwood (probably couldn't stand the crowds at Alderwood Mall) and a light blue small circular object headed towards the earth in the Tacoma area (possible frisbee sighting).

Montana, the Dakotas, Idaho and New Mexico, have had zero UFO's sightings lately. Surprisingly - Nevada, home of area 51, has had only one UFO flying around Las Vegas recently.

Note - The Poly9 map hadn't caught up to the UFO sightings contained in National UFO Reporting Center listings for November's Washington state sightings.

Not a map, but in my surfing I ran across an Alien Abduction Report Form which at first made me laugh to think of the potential for pranks and then a bit sad to think of someone having to fill out a form on the internet to share their alien abduction. Maybe with the number of cell phones with cameras, and video cameras in them, we will get some good pics or even a video of an abduction. Until then I remain a skeptic.

According to MSNBC News not much is happening in the world (outside the USA). However I did find an interesting story out of Germany about ‘Bad Santas’ wreaking havoc worldwide.

Google-Yahoo Traffic-Weather Maps might come in handy for some trip planning. I checked the traffic for Two Dot, Montana and things look clear...according to the map anyway.
