At the moment (S*** F****** Euro) it's like 1:2 on the Dollar and
1:3 on the Pound (plus a small bonus). Compared to a year ago,
it's like a 20% off on all stuff over here.

Forgett Excite - they put the center of Munich in the middle of
nowhere - Well, maybe not, there Mark is quite close to a building
at a US site, which is known to house some CIA departments - so
maybe that's their source - this would also explane that there are
lots of spelling errors in street names, wrong names and even streets
drawn at wrong locations.

is the closest you may get on there for VCFe location. The Map
is centered on the real city centre, the Mark is on the VCFe site.
It looks like as if their coordinates are somewhat out of orgin.
I did gather the VCFe location per GPS (7 satelites used), and
when using them (48o 7' 51" N, 11o 36' 56" E), Excite shows
a map location about 150 meters (500 ft) of the real location.
I did check the GPS measurement with two different recivers (a
Garmin GPS 38, and the navigation system of my car).

You're right - just, where to start - you are in fafour of the
Oberland - but there's more in Bavaria (not to speak about the
occupied terretories - free Bavaria!).

That's the back side of beeing forced to work for the money ...
The job takes away valuable time you could otherwise use for
coming to VCFe - Just tell you boss you prefer VCFe over slavery :))
