Post 7 of 10 Since 6/29/2009	Did you ever see the "Big Cheese" episode of West Wing? CJ (IIRC) was presented with this scenario of changing the world maps to put, as one change, Australia on top by a group of cartographers. She disagreed with it. They asked why. Her reply? "Because it freaks me out."

Illinois Post 9607 of 9682 Since 9/8/2006	You mean this? Because it would be so radical, maybe they would just put Australia in the middle of a typical (north up) map: I don't know. But we would all go for a walk about and say g'day when we pass each other. Kangaroos would be the most popular shoes. Footy (Australian football) would be the name of the world's most popular sport.

Post 17013 of 17134 Since 8/31/2001	Ya, that's it. And then, of course, they would have to put antartica on the very top of the earth. Guess, we'ld all have to start driving on the wrong side of the road, too. S

Post 17016 of 17134 Since 8/31/2001	Would they export kangaroos to north america? Here in canader, we have huge grasslands, not doing anything. Sending roos out there to graze, their population would explode and the world's meat shortage problem would be solved. S

California Post 1849 of 1911 Since 5/20/2007	This creates a few problems. For one thing, the earth would then rotate backwards. This has to be catastophic. Even the planets would all be going around the sun backwards. Time might even reverse itself.

Post 3242 of 3352 Since 5/11/2006	Anywhere can be the top of the world. Today I choose Lancaster County, PA, to be the top. From where I'm sitting, the earth curves away and downward from me. Just like it does everywhere else.
