[quote="Extram":3lkz481g]It always amazes me at how efficient and even artistic farmers can be as they till their lands. They don't waste a square foot.

I suppose farmers have to resourceful with every square foot of land they possess. On a side note, I cannot "unsee" the terrible road drawn by [url=http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=44.305562&lon=-94.515928&z=18&m=b&show=/user/1193283/:3lkz481g]murvanidze[/url:3lkz481g]! |

I can still remember when it wasn't all that unusual to find corners with [u:23bnvgvl]four[/u:23bnvgvl] gas stations - I can even recall where some of them used to be. These days they are almost non-existent and worthy of a 'special mention' if you see one. |

It deserve to be placed in WM like other geoglyphs, even if it's a modern drawing.
It's about 80x80m and is not similar to "school scrawl".
Would you like to do that, Alwin? |

That they may, in some cases be related to peri-glacial phenomena is strong currently. Surely they will produce many more doctoral and post-doc papers.[/quote:2ozoll9s]

When I checked on that ultimate low I found a report of a remote sensing satellite perceiving a low of -134 F in Antarctica. As it was not recorded at a specified height above the ground by approved methods it will not count. |
