None of those help, does anyone know if you can get big maps of america with the important stuff on them? (e.g. landmarks)

Are you looking for these lines to intersect, or the actual points. I can guarantee you that there aren't landmarks on every site (although there are cultural landmarks on more than a few of them, but still not all)...
If you're looking for something that contains a [google]Map of American landmarks[/google], I would suggest googling it, by clicking my clicky over there... It's the best shot you're going to have, because it's a monumental (get it?) task to place all the landmarks on a single map. Most likely, it would overlap so much that it would be difficult to tell.

Well, who can be sure that Doctor Hasley's site is truly "in-game"...
However, that doesn't rule it out. Odd site though, probably loaded with stuff that I don't have the software to find. All links go to either the google search for "honey, sos, wtf" or, more prominently, ILB.
But, uh... what does this all have to do with GPS Map, which is the subject?

I am soooo going to have to beat someone's ass for this creation of false websites. (If that's what it is)
The only way to read the thing is to blow it up to full screen. And it is using AltaVista Babelfish. GGRRRRRR
edit- oh yeah, and it's Dr. HALS EY, not HASL EY!!!!

This site is a hoax, as confirmed in the Wiki .
But, then, you already knew that, didn't you, O guest?

Genesis11, that wasn't meant towards you at all. That is what the website spells for Dr. Halsey.

BTW, agree with your sig totally.

Glad to hear it.
Also, I really don't ever remember how to spell the Doc's name. In all honesty, if I wrote her name 50 times today, I'd still probably spell it wrong at least 20 times... Sad, ain't it?
So, really, I deserved the admonishment.
(love emoticons)
EDIT: Speaking of my sig, I was just curious...
With so many obvious nods towards the Bible hidden throughout Halo (um, COVENANT anyone?)... Is it possible that something could be found in the bible, a la Mission Impossible?
You know, just wild Spec...

I haven't noticed anything yet that seems familiar. And since I'm an end times nut, I think I'd probably recognize stuff. Since that'd be the most likely parts to use for a game like this. Of course if they did use it, would we expect them to do anything obvious??

I just think it would be cool if us Christians finally got to use our beliefs for something other than church and outreaches... I mean, reading some cryptic message and being able to say, HEY, that's from the Bible! I'll go look it up...

Hope that helps in anyway.

Thanks for the map man- I've been trying to find the ones that I saw before when I was lurking, but couldn't- this one is a real help... Oh, and Genesis, it looks like there is one on the Cape.
