Applying logic to a logic based system is fraught with issues.

That's very true however if it was something like a fast gamma burst then because the GPS satellite s surround the earth not all would be damaged (if any) so it wouldn't be a total wipe out, if a solar flare then the same applies, and in any case if I was driving on the continent when this awful disease allows it then I pretty much know how to get to where I would want to go to based on familiarity and memory!

Sorta goto Brussels, turn right, and carry straight on till morning!

We need to turn the light out, at night at least.

Re: Cartophile

I bought a nice A3 map of Australia to record my trips on. it cost me $16 to $20 (can't remember exactly) but it is just a paper map.

I was walking past the newsagent yesterday where they have a rack of posters for kids and their school work. There were times tables, Solar System, the World and Australia.

Bugger me the map of Australia was bigger than the one I bought, was laminated and had stuff on the back (national anthem, Coat of Arms etc.) I bought one for $9. I can use a white board marker on it too!

I found this book in a charity shop some years ago

Re: Cartophile

The only trouble with those laminated maps is they are a bugger to fold up and put in your rucksack Bruce.... My Dad used to have a linen one of Great Britain where he marked down all the places he cycled, some people couldn't drive that far these days.... I wish I had taken more care of it. And him, come to think of it...
