Revision as of 14:35, 21 May 2008

The coordinates for this date are still unknown. They will become known at about 9:30 AM EDT.

According to CNBC todays opening Dow Jones is 12824.94. The string for 2008-05-21 is “2008-05-21-12824.94″ and the md5sum 2df19d4fe7daa520dc8d9fc5d4ed0711. This, by my calculations makes the offsets .179467994697783 and .861480496196977. The Boston location then is 42.179467994697783, -71.861480496196977. Can anyone else confirm?

Made a local copy of the page and updated it based on http://money.cnn.com/data/markets/dow/ I am getting the same numbers. -User:pturing

Plans

User:xkcd will attempt to be the first to reach these coordinates in Boston.
