March7:
Pete lectured on the fascinating nation of Togo. It is divided into 5 regions, all of which are much the same. Its main exports are dust and carbon dioxide, which are produced by the exhalations of the inhabitants. Like the Inuit and snow, it is said that the people of this charming little country have 3000 words for different types and degrees of "nothing".
We later put on the 3D glasses and had fun with some ArcScene and ArcGlobe exercises. We exaggerated the terrain of Death Valley, extruded and contaminated the groundwater of the San Gabrial Basin, interpolated people's thyroids in the Chernobyl vicinity, rendered Horse Cave, Kentucky asunder, flew through Massachusetts in a Unidentified Friggin Object, globablized Las Vegas, then stifled and blocked the sunlight of thousands of residents of California by draping a floating layer of ozone emissions over them. All in all, a fun class.
