    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    Looks like CA is getting bombed, unless they posted bad coordinates.

    Not me, those tracking numbers say they are going to be delivered tomorrow. I'm 2 hours north of Indy so I'm hoping not to hear the air raid sirens!!

    But isn't Indianapolis the point of origin?  That was my take on it - and it appears (if those coordinates are the supposed destination) that the packages are headed for So. California. 

    Am I missing something?   :#

    How the hell do you tell where they are going? I can only see point of origin.

    looks like the coordinates are targeting a US bank in California. Anyone live in Lake Forest California?

    My parents live near there...

    You can enter comma separated coordinates in Google Maps to find the location, such as "33° 38' 48" N, 117° 41' 17" W", assuming that these are NAD83 coordinates.  :) 

    The internet makes it too easy, I remember having to get out the Topo Quads and a  1:24,000 Scale Map Ruler to find locations.  Remember compasses?  I still have a pair of binoculars with a compass built into one eyepiece, now it's just an app for that.

    Oh, my bad on reading the details. I thought that where they currently were was final destination. Thats why I don't use technology.

    Clandestine operations in California? Guess we will have to wait to see what the counter-attack looks like.

    Well, if you've used the old LORAN B or C system, you are an ancient mariner or squid.

    Hmmm, no confirmation?
    You sure it wasn't a miss?
