I have no desire to take a virtual voyage. I'd rather
sail, walk or ride a bike and see things up close and
personal.

Those who rave about the software are confirming
the fact that they are pretend sailors and armchair
sailors.

Shame on you.

Type in an address and it flies to it. Zooms in close enough that I could
see my vehicles.Some neat features too.

Curse you Scout ... I just spent hours (and $30) flying around the world.

That's the neatest software I've seen in a long time! It helps that
they have most of my home state (MA) at 1/2 meter resolution, and the
city I lived in half my life (Cambridge) at the highest res in their
database: 3 inches.

Here's a pic from it of the lock in the Shinnecock Canal:

Damn, that reminds me - mow I have to check out the Waterford Flight on
the Erie Canal ...
