Any information on the internet that the disabled can obtain, the little girl from India can also obtain. Earthpoint has free USGS overlays for google earth. Moreover, all the USGS quads are freely available on the internet. You can print them out and tape them together into as large a topo map as you have the patience to construct. there is, however, information in various libraries that cannot be found. My first failed attempt (which at one point I figured had a 2% chance of being correct and offered to cover 1-50 bets, meaning if you won I'd pay you 1 and if I I won you'd pay me 50, which led unscrupulous CC-ers to tell lies about me, go figure) relied on that notion. I obtained maps that were blacked out from the internet by going to the UNM library. that was a great lesson in what constitutes coincidence. In those days I was obsessed with 42 and 242 and so on. My map was created by William Boone Douglass who is said to have "discovered" Rainbow Bridge. In the article my map came from he discussed Gallina ruins in two New Mexican PLSS townships. Douglass reused numbers in the two townships. We found a ruin 42 in both townships. the line connecting them was on the bearing 242 and passed through a notch between two mountains. On the winter solstice the sun set in that notch. A 15 mile long rainbow, what better blaze than the sun? Complete crap. It might be that Douglass, being a rianbow guy, had gleaned this and deliberately labeled those ruins "42". Or it was complete random chance. Que so what, so what. I would have enjoyed watching your solution unfold and gone botg with you on that one...it sounds fascinating. You did say- Problem is that the internet is the great equalizer. Any information on the internet that the disabled can obtain, the little girl from India can also obtain. But, this isn’t true for the way the hypothetical question was laid out. The little girl from India only is allowed her one map of the Rocky Mountains. The disabled that f brings into the answer get to use all the maps that they are deeply into (maps and geography). F changed the conditions of the question for the disabled by how he answered. You’re right that any searcher that isn’t the little girl from India doesn’t have the same constraints placed on them as was placed on her with the way the question was posed. I want to reply to trigrace’s comments as they are thought provoking. I’ll post as soon as I can after I compose my thoughts. Pays to be a winner. |
