I HAVE FOUND JESUS.

No, really. I was goofing off on Google Maps again, and came across this, totally by random.

o_O))

Also, Wikipedia presents one of the most amazing and disturbing things ever caught on film (or, Engineering Gone Horribly Horribly Wrong): http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/19/Tacoma_Narrows_Bridge_destruction.ogg

[edit] Okay, I went and looked at the Area 51 site, and now I am officially freaked the fuck out.

Poor Jesus. Forever entombed in the mountains of New Hampshire.

^^ Actually, it's Peru. I started out in NH, but... I got a little bit distracted.

If I recall, Maxim magazine is supposed to have put up a large, flat billboard somewhere close to the outskirts of Las Vegas with the intention that it is visible to the satellites. I didn't look for it with the maps though. I don't know if it's recent enough. But I did see a shot of it somewhere.

The Tacoma-Narrows bridge thing really makes you want to remember your Physics. It's also the reason why the Romans used to break step when they crossed bridges and etc. A couple of years ago in England they had their milennium celebration and whatever it was the people were standing on, I forget if it was a bridge, or just a walkway, also started to wave and wobble with the resonance :) Architects and engineers have a hard time of it.

That Area 51 thing is really creepy. o_0;; I need to get on the Google Earth I downloaded on one of the campus computers and look it up on there.
