Google doing Street View in La Paz
Saw a car similar to this one with their logo driving around La Paz.

unless the Mexican gov't blocks Google Earth Street view- as many countries are now doing. Onthe bright side- you folks in Baja sur still have time
to arrange rocks into obscene words and designs for the world to enjoy.

Jesse,
As sweet a guy as you are, what made you pick " The Soup N-zi " for your Avatar. 
For folks not familiar with that character, watch some Seinfeld reruns.

They'll only have sat. photos, no road views.

What's available from Google is just a bunch of blurs compared to what your good old USA government has from their satallites.

Boy- that's a fact. 25 years ago I was visiting a buddy at his Mission Beach house and saw a photo of his car parked in front of the house on the
wall. I made a wisecrack about the photo and he told me it had been taken from a satellite using the lenses he was delveloping for the gov't. And
that was 25 years ago. I'll bet now they can read your watch from the moon.

For several years, I've had satellite images of various US cities at a resolution of 1/4 meter per pixel. That means you can see people walking on
the streets. Of course these were taken several years ago. Nothing up to date at all.

I share a few things with the guy. He suffered for his Soups, i suffer for my Steaks. Hes a little eccentric, i am a little eccentric. Hes a little
temperamental, i am a little temperamental.
