Well, this gave me a perfect reason to install Google Earth on my new desktop.
You know, environmental, tree-hugging nancy-pants have always amused me… They go on and on about this little world we live on, and yet we are making a gorramed disaster of just about every orbital trajectory overhead. Some day, we are going to have to leave this forsaken rock, and that is going to be a pain in the ever-loving heinie at the rate we are going.

Excuse me while I go to Costco for some Reynolds Wrap… I’ve got Google Earth and it’s fun to mark spots on the globe where I’ve been, but the Googloid zombies live down the street, already have my truck in Street View, and I’m not sure I want them to have more of me (that I know about).
Yeah… just think of how much of that stuff falls every year, especially the decommissioned and decaying satellites.
As for Google… definitely a love-hate relationship. They are certainly failing on their “Don’t be evil” tagline, though.
