New FAQ for Forum Rules

I have created a new FAQ page that describes POI Factory’s guidelines for the forums. There is a link to the FAQ below.

I decided to do this because there has been some negativity in the forums lately, and it is time to do some spring cleaning. There has been a lot of political debate, which becomes heated and disruptive to the community. I have also seen new people treated rudely.

Contributors of the Week 2010-04-19

This week we are recognizing Mahoney.

This week you took on the huge task of documenting all the McDonald Play Places. Not only did you make a separate file but you also edited the original file.

You are amazing and we are so lucky to have you as one of our major contributors.

Thanks again for all that you do around here.

Cars that steer in direction driver is looking

shock Wow. Just Wow.

"Tired of spinning that steering wheel? Try this: German researchers have developed a new technology that lets drivers steer cars using only their eyes.

Raul Rojas, an artificial intelligence researcher at Berlin's Free University, said Friday that the technology tracks a driver's eye movement and, in turn, steers the car in whatever direction they're looking."

Cel Towers

Anyone ever seen a POI file with the location of cel towers? Seems to me that when I'm on my boat cruising Lake of the Woods, one shoreline looks like the next. However, tall structures stand out quite necely, like for instance the cel tower at Morson Ontario. You can see it for miles (even at night since it is lit), and it makes it VERY easy to find the way home.

My biggest fear is that when I die, my wife will sell my fishing stuff for what I said I paid for it.

Another Suggestion

I've done a lot of reading and there are a load of interests and resulting POI files here.

Now... on one of my journeys recently, I wandered past an RC Airfield and I have no idea if it's in the POI file we have for them.
