Wow...very nice, SP!

I was worried I didn't give enough clue. :P

Aral Sea near Muynak, Uzbekistan or Aralsk, Kazakhstan? :unsure:

Good one. Bligs was on the right track, but I refused to give him IM hints. And then he gave up. What a lose.

Thanksgiving vacation go closed!

So...

Not my turn, technically, but I find this interesting.

Tell me what the heavily pixellated (not by me) thing in the center of this picture is.

It appears to me that google is voluntarily complying with some new lamebrained government idea, because the picture wasn't pixellated a month or so ago.

I left in more clues, intentionally, because anybody looking for such a thing could find out about this place with a 2 word google search.

Yup. Good job.

Funny that it's pixellated, eh?

(I figured I wouldn't be usurping your turn, since you'd probably figure it out first anyway, you genius, you.)

p.s. ...nobody blow it up. One of the coolest profs EVER has a lab in the building just northwest of it. Thanks for the pchem, Ed!

Must be something they're making into a standard. The Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant is the same way. Not that you couldn't find it from reading the local newspaper's webpage. Silliness.

Hmm...that's indeed weird.

I'd read that you couldn't see the roof of The White House because they didn't want people to possibly figure out what types of defensive equipment might be up there.
