Here is the place I wish I lived and placed as my location on my profile. Comiskey Park in Chicago at 35th and Shields Avenue, right off I-194 on the Ryan expressway. Go Sox. (going there on the 26th to see Buehrlemon kill the Twinkies.

My house is on the bottom street on the top part of it. There isn't a house next to it but one behind it and in front of it.

Yeah I think that one's my.

Here is Norfolk Naval Base, top ship is a carrier, can't tell which one.
The one under it is an amphib, likely Tarawa class
The one under it is Nimitz class carrier with registry CVN-71. That makes it USS Theodore Roosevelt.
The southernmost is an amphib ship of the Wasp class

This is why I hate Leviathan and its infringement on privacy. I've come to realize that technology is just as much an offender as hierarchy at denying freedom.

That's a better colour pic. Mine is the one with a bunch of different roofs.

This is the spot where the apartment complex we're living at (until the real house is built) should be. Either it has somes sort of anti-imaging device or the satellite as blurry on that pass...

And, no, I don't give you permission to use it to target orbital weapons at me.

This is my school.

It should be zoomed in, if it isn't, it's right where there's a sharp bend in the river.

and this is where my house is, you can't see it through the trees though, it's just above the large one you can see in the middle.

SETI telescopes.

There, found something within the immediate mile of my house. I don't live that far from the dot marked Farmers City...

My house, about a year old, is now here (http://terraserver.microsoft.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=10&x=1614&y=22395&z=17&w=1).

Just because I wanted an idea how they look from above, here (http://terraserver.microsoft.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=11&x=936&y=11176&z=17&w=1) is my honey-bear's university, and here (http://terraserver.microsoft.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=13&x=367&y=2797&z=17&w=1)'re both* of mine. It might be possible to get closer, but without street names, 20+ story buildings look just like everything else their same shape until you get really damned close...

*U.Pitt has about a year and a half's worth of CS courses, so then they just send you to CMU, on their dime.

Here is my school. Yes it is small- 300 students in the high school-, yes it is old, and yes, it has a square cinder track. http://terraserver.microsoft.com/image.aspx?t=1&s=10&x=3647&y=22659&z=15&w=1

somthing wrong with that site for one my rd does not go over a highway ><

Well since I live in the middle of nowhere, Canada, all I get is a topographical map. http://terraserver.microsoft.com/image.aspx?t=2&s=13&x=368&y=2978&z=17&w=1

My house is on the street to the right of the river. It comes off the highway and goes back on, directly to the left of the words Haldimand. it does say "Sims Locks" but you probably can't read it. Good luck! lol

Too bad i can't find my house,it's in Oz :D
