White House roof edited in USGS photos
I was using www.terraserver.microsoft.com to look at
aerial photographs of Washington and noticed that the USGS has obscured the roofs of the White House and the two government buildings to the east and west by overlaying them digitally with featureless, though tastefully tinted, rectangles. Possibly they're trying to conceal the location of the missile launcher recently put in place, which a newspaper photo showed to be on the roof of the Treasury Department building east of the White House. I used a screen snapshot to capture the USGS image and have put it on my Web site, temporarily at http://cpacker.org/awh.jpg I don't know how familiar with Washington the typical interested viewer of this will be, so let me know if I should identify the structures in question with arrows. I'm planning to include this image in a forthcoming Web page about Washington's barricades. -- (Charles Packer) http://cpacker.org/whatnews |

While they're at it, they might as well even out the badly worn grass on the Ellipse. miguel -- Hit The Road! Photos and tales from around the world: http://travel.u.nu |

Yes, and why would they NOT want some people to know where, exactly, they are located? Duh? |
