The markers are stock to the picture, which was generated by a 3-D mapping demo online somewhere.

I hadn't recalled those markers before. It helps to have some extra observers. Thanks.

The Islamic Society of Sarasota and Bradenton, which for 10 years has met in a private home, has a growing congregation and wants to build a 13,500-square-foot mosque it says is based on Islamic traditions that include two 80-foot-high minarets.

The FAA may have some jurisdiction if this building is within a certain distance from an airport.

IIRC, the markers are selected by whoever requests the automated picture. I don't remember the options, but there are several, and they may be related to infrastructure. If we can find that site, we can run through the options until we can reproduce that particular version. The option for that layout may be revealing.

[HipShot]

So may any neighbors if they are in the shadow path.

[Cindy]

Yep.
That sites goes up and down frequently.

Ok thanks.

[Cindy]

I don't think I have that one.
The daawa's pop on and off.

Thanks a lot.

Here is another one, you might have.

Thank You...

And with this my eyes are tired good night all.

It seemed pretty tame compared to most sites, but you know, I'm not an Arabic speaker, so I'll have a friend look at it.

Thanks drymans wife.

[HipShot]

Found it! Here is the site that allows generation:

Good night Judith Anne.

[Cindy]

Goodnight dryman's wife and no, I don't have that link.

Thank you.

Interesting site. I agree that the Jakel image started with a map from that site. I wouldn't be surprised to see the jihadis employing high end GIS to plan their operations. Once again, our technology is being used against us.

[Myrddin]

I agree. That's the one that created the initial image.

[HipShot]

It seems broken. It's only working in 2d for me.

[Myrddin]

I'm headed to San Diego for a few days. Will return to catch up here Tuesday. Probably on thread 16.

Thanks. Excellent link. That doesn't explain the other 3, though.

Nor the other witnesses...

[HipShot]

It's the water. Mass hallucination from all the democrats flushing their acid when they saw all the security.

I keep going back to that mystery "weather" package that was PARACHUTED into someone's yard in deleware, days before the fourth.

I wonder how much it weighed.
