What is so secret about Indiana?
Google Earth | 5/28/2006 | Swordmaker

Posted on 05/29/2006 3:46:30 PM PDT by Swordmaker

What is it with Indiana? Isn't Indiana as American as Apple Pie??? What have they got to hide? Are they ashamed of their state?

Why is Indiana photographed at a far lower resolution than all of the rest of the United States???

Take a look at these screen grabs of Google Earth showing Indiana...

We can zoom into to Area 51 and look at it as if we were flying over it at 1000 feet... but try Indiana... the best resulution makes us feel as if we were flying over it at 5000 feet! What are they hiding? Is there a law that states: "Thou shalt not satellite photograph Indiana at high resolution."?

My parents were born in the toe of Indiana... and when we went to visit, we became convinced that Southern Indiana was in a 50 year time warp... and that you couldn't get there from here... no matter where "here" is. Could it be that light itself is slower coming off of Indiana? Does it take longer so the exposure appears to be farther away??? What gives?

Is this the ultimate flyover country?

Is it because Eerie, Indiana, is in Indiana? Who knows?

While we're at it? What's with Missouri???

It's the most northernmost southern state, that's the real reason.

Indiana is really where the men in the black helicopters took the aliens from Roswell, Elvis and Jimmy Hoffa. Area 51 is just a distraction!

My better half lived a 1/4 mile from the hanger. Had an IQ increase of something like 50 points living there a half a year. ;-)

LOL

maybe that's why I'm able to get Bs in my Calc classes (and I'm currently holding an A with a week to go) since I've been working at WRight Pat :)

Maybe it's because the Government doesn't want you to see
all the "SILOs" Hint hint.

Simple farms, my butt.

Those "Agrarian" installations have been protecting us against the Godless commies for a long time, and AND providing us with a constant replenishment of our precious
natural fluids too.

Every anal probe I've had has been wiped haha from memory.
The only reason I know I've had them has been the Bills.

Anal probe memory wipes leave a strange fascination. When were you taken?

On the contrary, Indiana is photographed, for the most part, at a higher resolution than any other state. My question is why Indiana merits such detailed statellite representation as opposed to any other state.

Yeah what is up with Missouri. It makes it look like every part of the state is some green jungle
