The Pentagon is

Hey Anon, how do you know all this stuff? Are you a secret agent man? If so, what are you doing spending all your time on this silly web site?

Boy, I have been missing the fun. David K., are you forgetting who else has given you fotos for the Bajamission site? I hate to admit it, but I agree with David K. on one point (miracle of miracles). THere have been numerous travel guides to the Peninsula, for example the Garhard and Glick book from the 1950s, that provided detailed directions on how to reach the mission sites. The GPS coordinates are not giving away a great secret. I first visited many of the Baja California mission sites, and some of my photos are posted on David K's Bajamissions site, in 1974, and found the sites without the benefit of GPS.

On the other hand, countries such as Mexico, Peru, Bolivia, etc, are concerned about preserving historic sites, but do not have the benefit of the resources to do so.


AA/ Dr. Jackson... It was GPS data that was being discussed and I mentioned who provided GPS waypoints for the missions in our mission web page

http://davidksbaja.com/bajamissions.

Any photos sent to me are credited with their source. You have sent some great historic photos and some of your own. In each case you are credited for providing the photos. If I missed any, I am more than happy to add.

Merry Christmas!

Oops, that was me... I changed from my pc to webtv and forgot to sign in before posting! The link to AA's and others' mission pics is http://davidksbaja.com/bajamissions I didn't leave a space before the period, and the link didn't become 'hyper' above.
Merry Christmas

A Better Question

A better question is: Why does the rest of the world want to eliminate us?

In the case of the Arab world, its the same reason they want to eliminate the Jews: Because we/they aren't Arab. In that regard, Bin Laden is like Hitler, without the means (yet) to destroy everything that isn't Arab/Muslim.

When I'm in Mexico, I act like a guest and respect the land, people, customs and laws. All of the Mexican and Canadian people that I know do the same when they are in the US. If Mexico or Canada were under the threat of Arab fanatics, would they do less than what the US Government is trying to do? I don't think so.
