We GIS Pros are making little girls cry with our efforts to get GIS tools to the common man.
Virginia sits at the computer and heads straight to the North Pole. OK, that looks plausible. Official NASA watermark on the image. There’s his workshop, a runway and his reindeer and sleigh waiting. But what’s that on the path? Viriginia zooms in. There he is! It’s Santa! But he looks somewhat cartoonish. Something’s wrong. Virginia plays with Google Earth’s slant tool and… the game is up.
Santa is thinner than Cameron Diaz!

I always get a laugh out this photo. Our lab manager has this photo and some caption about the ACLU, can’t remember it off top of my head.
