Default It's not as easy as it looks.

It depends. If you have enough clout Google will definitely change


their imaging on Google Earth. After we returned from Cancun a few


years ago I took a look at the area where we stayed. In several


places construction sites had been replaced with architects depictions


of what the new resort was expected to look like. Even more


interesting, some of the jungle around the Chichen Itza pyramid site


has been deliberately obscured, apparently to prevent relic raiders


from using Google Earth as a guide. Certain high security areas in


the US have also been intentionally obscured, probably at government


request. There is nothing to indicate the change, just a blurred


image where you were expecting more detail.


He can't afford a decent boat so I'm sure he didn't pay off Google!



Jeez Ditzy...nice way to talk about your L'il Buddy in CT.
