DizRotus Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 I hope you're able to view the photos in the MS PowerPoint file. The satellite photos are incredible. If you have MS PowerPoint on your computer, save the attachment to your hard drive and you will be amazed. It's worth the effort. The Earth looks great from afar. It deserves better treatment from it's tenants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 Bumped to give more an opportunity to see the great photos of planet Earth. The night photos are especially interesting. It's surprising to me how much of India is lighted at night. I guess when you cram that many people into that amount of space there will be light from friction, if nothing else.

Its like Silicon Valley one end and hmmm west virginia the other. Hey wait that is America we are talking about. guess I have to claim ignorance. Was in the Navy for awhile and saw alot of 3rd world countries,I think I put them in that group,never been there. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay481985 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Well atleast your honest.... Hey in alot of backwater america if you didn't realize what country you were you would think that you were in a depressed, almost third world like country. Heck Shanghi China is now the most modern city in the world claiming 2 out of every 3 super cranes in the world in that city alone! remember those cranes are the 100 million dollar made on site of the building sort of cranes. But 50 years ago it was little more than a somewhat famous port with more beggers then jobs. But now they claim I believe 4,5,6,7,9 tallest sky scrapers in the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steamer Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Interesting, I usually put my foot in my mouth once a week. I actually had camping on my mind and one thing led to another. Love campfires and camping,just take off on the bike and rough it with a tent and sleeping bag. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay481985 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 fly or cast? since I never had fly equipment, too expensive and hard to find the proper place to fly (areas without alot of trees) oh and the places I fish trout are usually artificially stocked since NJ is over populated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay481985 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 wild trout are just smarter and a different type.... as much as it is the same wild and domesticated are totally different, even in taste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted March 4, 2006 Author Share Posted March 4, 2006 If you have Power Point on your computer you should download the "PrettyBluePlanet" attachment. While it's reasonable to be skeptical of attachments from strangers, you should take some comfort in the positive comments from mark1101, Steamer and Jay. Or, you could decide that I joined this forum 4 years ago and patiently waited to post a thread that includes an attachment that would infect your computers and lead to the downfall of western civilization.

Jay481985 Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 ha I trust the usual people on this forum, Dizrotus has been on here longer than I have.
