Here's where I live. If you see it at night, at the center of the
picture there will be a small horizontal blob of light and just to the
left of it a single point of light where I live.

Is that one of those wave-creation swimming pools a bit east of your house
on Midland Trail?

The one light is your house while the other one is the heat
dissipation of your SUV?

I don't have one of those monstrocities. My Thunderbird blew some
seals and water got into the oil and trashed the crankshaft so we got
a newer car with a 3.0 liter Duratec V6 engine.

Can you find it on Google maps new Satellite Service? If your in one
of the covered areas you can get in quite close.

You can see my house (actually the building my apartment is in) from
here (if I understand how the things works right):
http://maps.google.ca/maps?q=Toronto&ll=43.661427,-79.409630&spn=0.004699,0.007918&t=k&hl=en

Assuming that worked it is due west of the south west corner of the
track field, at the NE corner of Markham and Harbord (you can switch
between map and satellite mode).

Pretty nifty.

maps.google.com has finally realized that there is also something
outside North America

Try to enter Regensburg, then zoom out, if you are interested in
seeing where it is. Detailed data missing yet, unfortunately.
