CrazyThumbs Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 I clicked on the first link then I found my house by zooming out, I dont know how I pulled that one off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 How do you guys get those links to show right? All I get are the default page links, because the maps are opening in a java frame or something, not changing the actual address of the page. Anyway, if you want to see my town, type in "Fort Wayne."

Centurion_13 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 I live somewhere near the bottom of the city.which puts me near the airport and near the army base. Its pretty neat because army trucks, tanks etc often drive down around the streets and we get to see all these military aircraft. Currently we have many US military personal around who drive in cars with the steeering wheel on the left side or fly around in their jets.its pretty interesting.
