A couple thousand years before any form of human flight. They must have had even better land surveying techniques than us.

Really makes you wonder, no? :wow:
They used to draw various shapes in the ground very accurately by tying one end of a rope to themselves and the other end to a stick in the ground.

You're from Greenland ? I've heard people were all drunkards over there. Not the Danish system as the one praised all over Europe. ;)

Well that just a stereotype... which happens to fit perfectly on me :D

Actually, Im 50% Greenlander. It's hard to see, but when I tell people they're like "oh yeah I can see that now"

About the Danish system, problem is that it kinda replaced much of our "obsolete" culture. You know, White Man meets Native. White Man takes Natives land. Native don't care cos Native has alcohol :)
It's been like this all over the world, only difference is that Denmark is actually very commited to helping Greenland solving the problems it's colonisation caused, and the Royal Family goes there every year, which is very much appriciated by the locals.

But I live in Copenhagen though. Just take a look at it, isn't it beautiful:

Anyway, I had already seen that satellite view from Paris. It's a pretty old image now (from 1997) but I remember it's amusing because we can see on it the insane queue requested to get access into the Louvre museum ! :lol:

That's right. In Europe we tend to like to preserve inheritance from the past. That's not really the same as in China where we blow up city centers to build cheap towers instead. It's cultural I guess... though I'm still convinced Chinese people will regret it in about 20 years.

Anyway, near one of those star-shaped fortresses, we can find the little mermaid ! :D

Really ?? Then we definitly don't have the same version of Sim City ! I can't wait to get your version since I'm dying to be able to build buildings which stick to each other in Sim City ! That's something we can find in all dense cities around the world but is still impossible to do in my version of that game !!

How is called your version of Sim City Rambuchan ? Simcity 10,000 ?

No it's called Sim City Europe Europe Europe. (I didn't like the way you referred to Hero's home and work place as Sim City. Didn't it occur to you that it may offend?)
