    anyone do truck recovery? help!

    See post 21. It's actually a stream bed (a cripple actually), so it's hard to just wipe it off the map by continual grading or filling. I do know a 'cripple' is interpreted differently by different people, and no longer used much. I could have called it an intermittent stream too. I have (over...

    Wet Forest - Formerly Known as Dry Forest

    I got that big red splotch over me. Lightning, thunder, heavy rain.

    GPS coordinate interferes with creating additional

    Thanks Boyd, I just tried the cheat you suggested and it worked. That's the easiest way to do it, and you can always verify it has the correct coordinates.

    GPS coordinate interferes with creating additional

    Boyd, this is odd. I created waypoints 1 and 2, but when I tried to create waypoint 3 (clicking on the center cross), waypoint 2 kept coming up instead of the coordinate entry box. I tried many times to create #3, but it refused. So I went to create waypoint 4 (many yards away), and it performed...

    EZPass scam - don't fall for this one

    I have my Outlook email set up to send everthing I get to junk unless I at one time emailed directly to them. It helps immensely. And even if I send someone an email and then they start bothering me, I change the rules to always send them to junk. Now I just complain about having to empty my...

    Stafford Township and Bass River on 1949 topo

    You asked about a big fire there at the time. When I was watching that Bass River 1977 fire video, the narrator said there were 5 firefighters killed in the same area in the 1930s (1936?).

    Stafford Township and Bass River on 1949 topo

    I've never seen so much white in the Pines on a topo Boyd. Do you have an idea what's going on there?

    Why is every road

    I watched this video this morning. Very sad. A nagging thought I have is how it started. The only thing I could think of is a piece of glass on the forest floor was magnified by the sun. After seeing the video, I have to wonder what procedures were changed.

    Mystery in the Pine Barrens

    There's a blue button "continue reading", so there is a little more. Not surprising though that Jason Howell's name came up.

    Mystery in the Pine Barrens

    I recently stopped the subscription I have with the Wall Street Journal, but I do like it. They have just not come down to my price yet. Here's an article today. Hopefully one of you has a subscription and can post a free article.

    Music for the day

    How often do you get to see this song live? I always resented Morrison for not being more cultured (less rude) but he could really sing with emotion.

    Missing Woman

    This chaos means NJ reporters and journalists are really, really bad at their job. If they are being stonewalled, well hell, that is news too!

    Is that a turtle in your pants, or....?

    Don't get me started on what I'm seeing in the grocery nowadays. People wheeling a cart around with a 'therapy' (wink-wink) dog inside. Ok, so some of you are legit, sorry if I offended you.

    Music for the day

    And now, for something good and unique, from 1968. The fabulous Steve Miller Band. Quicksilver Girl.

    Cape May County Explorations

    I was doing a report on the Chestnut Oak today, and remembered something I thought should be followed up on. At one point, I noted that more than 90% of the Chestnut oak trunks had dead caterpillars on them. All of them just dead, stopped in their tracks. Below is one example I photographed...

    The Plane Boss!

    I know, I did the same. But I clearly remember it.

    The Plane Boss!

    But the real question is Guy, have you ever heard anyone on this board suggest that (and not necessarily Google) in the time you've been a member? I have. It was just a suggestion made many years ago when we first started seeing them.

    The Plane Boss!

    I think this was at least 15-20 years ago. I don't recall any of us being firm about it, just a theory at the time. We were relatively new to viewing aerials, but later than Terraserver.

    The Plane Boss!

    Oh gee, I forgot you had such a very thin skin Boyd, like the membrane of a dragonfly wing. Ask some of the older guys about the "the plane boss!" comment, they'll know. The plane aerial comment was directed to all the older forum members. Some used to say they were put there in case someone...
