So who's going? This is totally achievable! -Robyn 14:33, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- It's at the North Pole... --ilpadre 14:37, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Correction, I'm told its apparent location in Yosemite National Park is an illusion caused by a software bug. Carry on. But the North Pole is achievable. -Robyn 14:38, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Awesome location today: it's in a creek in Yosemite National Park. It's about 10 miles from Curry Village, which is inside the park. For a non-GPSer like me, this looks so reachable. Shows what I know about hiking, etc. :-)
Interesting how the Google Map for terrain has the trails marked, not the roadmap. -- Jevanyn 17:10, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- The drwilco calculator is hosed. The Monday globalhash is in 87, -124, not in Yosemite. See discussion above. It's wrong for Tuesday, too -- the actual point is just a couple of miles off the Vietnamese coast near Da Nang, not in Siberia. --starbird 17:27, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- Oh I'm so glad that is still a bug, but the bug has to be fixed, or that globalhash look up program taken down. I saw it on Friday, but when I made a page for it, I was told by multiple people that it was wrong, that it was at the north pole. When I saw this morning that it still showed in the wrong place, I was afraid for that the people who said it was wrong had been mistaken, and that I would have to hate them forever for making me miss a globalhash. -Robyn 17:38, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
