Interesting how the main page still shows the old, uncorrected subject line.

Better than boxes in numbers. That's what we distribution types have to deal with. And god forbid there's a stampede.....

Ipads are way to expensive. I think i'd sooner go with the Nook....as long as it can notate. I think it can or will by the time they get around to digitalizing the history section of the electronic store.

Besides which....i already have a Macbook Pro. I'd be cheaper to read an ebook off that vs. buying an ipad which i'd probably end up dinging up. That or lose it. I still can't find my ipod....a shame as it reduces me to listening to the c-Pod once i start my road trip.




I guarantee you can find a cheap iPad these days with the new one coming out and everyone wanting to unload.


not so sure about that. This is Apple after all.....the masters of price gouging. I was looking at older generation ipods to replace my missing ones......except for like the 2GB versions.....it floored me how much they want for used/refurbished ones!

Having recently been forced to shed about 200 pounds worth of trees...


What did you do with all your books Nik?

Have you, hopefully, stored them somewhere?



sadly....most of them are gone. Had i more time, i would have taken up JWE and others on the storage option....but within 7 days of being told i was being upgraded....i was living at work. I retain most of my air research books (2 boxes worth) but i'm regretting the loss of my big technical references. Admitedly alot of the history books needed to go....either read and done with or dilapitated and needing replacement anyway.

lol....i'm not even yet settled on where i'm going to be living in the near future yet but already i've been doing some research on $$$ to replace the tombs i want back eventually. As mentioned.....eBook readers are getting more attractive to me. Books like Shattered Sword and such would be perfect for the Nook and it's kin leaving me to collect technical references like Garzke and Friedman and Lacroix


Darn... books are rare and precious...

Internet History: Google Earth's WWII aerial images

By Independent UK

Aerial photographs of European cities during World War II have been made available on Google Earth, giving internet users a real glimpse of the smashed-up landscape of war.

Taken between 1935 and 1945, the snaps record a series of chilling views: Warsaw’s ghetto and bombed-out old town; the decimated Renaissance bridge in Florence; and bomb craters in Berlin.

The Royal Air Force and United States Air Force took the photographs, primarily for reconnaissance but also for post-bombing damage assessment, and the images were then stitched together by hand and kept as a record of the devastation.

Images of the 39 cities can now be compared with modern day Google Earth pictures, charting what a spokesperson for the Historic Centre of Warsaw described as “a near-total reconstruction of a span of history covering the 13th to th 20th Century”.

“[The images] remind us all of the devastating impact of war on the people in those cities and also the remarkable way in which urban environments are reconstructed and regenerated over time,” remarked Ed Parsons, Google’s geospatial technologist.

You can access the images by downloading Google Earth. Or you can look at a selection of stills of the cities with accompanying modern day images by clicking on the image or the link below.

Don't buy it from them. There's quite a few places you can get refurbished or just used Apple products.
