  • Found GLVYAZGY University Challenge 8 (Brmm Brmm)

  • Posted a note for GC3MKRH Dogfort v Catfort - Catfort

    This checkin to GC3MKRH Dogfort v Catfort - Catfort reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. With 6 of the 12 prerequisite caches now archived (after the CO didn't respond to queries, we're told), it seems unlikely that anybody's left who's both able and willing to find this cache. It was …

  • Maps Showing California as an Island Β– The Public Domain Review

    http://publicdomainreview.org/collections/maps-showing-california-as-an-island/ (publicdomainreview.org) If California were a country its economy would be the fifth largest in the world (just ahead of the UK). Yet the tech boom is not the starkest way California has ever stood apart from its neighbours. That would surely be the maps depicting it as an island, entire of itself. Below we …
