Not only is Pittsburgh misspelled, it's in the middle of Lake Erie! :lol:

Doesn't inspire confidence in their navigation, does it? :P
Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool.

I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss!

Toronto is shown where Ottawa should be.

And apparently, Ottawa has been moved to Quebec.

They should stick to making enormously over-priced watches and that rip-off cheese with all the holes drilled in it. Paid for, might I add, with NAZI GOLD!!!!!

I thought everything had been shifted up a bit until I looked more closely. Since when is Oakland 100 miles north of San Francisco? And since when is Tampa north of Orlanda. Sheesh.

Chicago is in Green Bay and apparently the two South American cities are "Sao" and "Paolo".

Isn't Portland, Oregon near the Oregon coast? And I don't remember Sacramento being in Idaho.

To the tune of Tom Waits', "The Piano Has Been Drinking"

The cartographer's been drinkin...
The protractor's asleep
And the GPS just fell apart
The compass has to take a leak...
And the cartographer's been drinkin...
The cartographer's been drinkin...
The cartographer's been drinkin....
But not the pilots...
Not the pilots...
No.. not... the pilots...

Cleveland is on the wrong lake, and apparantly there's one city in South America that rather than a river, has an entire freaking continent between it's two halves.
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.
