    and then I looked at the stats more carefully and thought "gee that person took about the same time we did ..."

    and then I scrolled down some more and realized "holy **** that was Ellen!"

    So I quickly deleted the post and was working on a different version but Dr. Badger was too quick on the draw.

    OK, way too funny! I am sitting here laughing my a$$ off with this one At lease I am quick with something!

    That was exactly what I thought when I saw what Motion Based did to my data when I uploaded it. More than anything I like the maps that it creates using Google Maps, and you can even import it into Google Earth.. pretty cool, but I really don't trust their algorithms... I mean come on, how hard is it!

    Yeah, it's not rocket science ! *

    (* I was riding with a bunch of geologists and it was a joke we all shared. The biochemist and the rock scientists. Hey, it was a long day. )

    ... hmm, on second thought, maybe it is ... ?

    He he... yah, I guess GPS is rocket science

    This rock scientist actually dated a rocket scientist for a while...it was always fun telling people that I was dating a rocket scientist

    There were a number of times yesterday when we were all standing around looking at the map that had me thinking "how many advanced degrees does it take..." Between the 4 of us I believe that there were 3 PhDs (or almost PhDs) and at least 3 masters degrees. You'd think that we would be able to figure out how not to take a wrong turn
