Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2

We know that If you take the lat/long and feed it into google earth, and then zoom in, there is some kind of thing right at the exact coordinates.

I don't think it's a "coincidence" that there is something at that exact coordinate. You can change the last digit of the lat-long and it doesn't move the target. That amount of precision is good to a few inches.

I checked out all the images and came up with one that shows the quad lamp at that point.

Here is the link. The lamp is in the lower right corner.
