If any Kansas City dwellers missed the latest Google Earth update, check it out right away! Turn on the 3-D Buildings layer. It's slow to load, but patience pays off, because they have done just about everything in photo-realistic 3-D. No, not the entire city out to its furthest limits, but as far as I can tell everything between the Plaza and Downtown is in there, down to individual single-family houses. It is unbelievable. They even have cranes on the construction sites. It's quite possible that Google Earth is now more real than the real Earth. Or something like that.
Anyway, enjoy that and I'll explain about my adventures in the hospital in the next post.

Very, very cool. I'm going to check that out right now. Have you had a chance to see the Ancient Rome layer that they've added? All 3D, developed by a small cadre of scholars. Astounding.
I have not seen the Ancient Rome layer, but I will look for that next time. Sounds pretty cool.
