If you have a broadband connection, this photo looks even more impressive (and informative) 
when you edit the URL to:
http://terraserver-usa.com/map.aspx?T=1&S=10&W=2000&H=2000&opt=0&Lon=-84.04525970799999&Lat=40.440339807

This is one of the most wonderful sites on the net -- at least for travelers.  You can view 
*any* place in the US either as an aerial photo or as a topo map, and at a wide variety of 
scales.  Furthermore, you have total control of the parameters by editing the URL -- if anyone 
has any trouble doing so, I will be glad to pass along tips.  The site is especially useful 
for pre-viewing potential RV parks or other campsites, or simply for checking attractions you 
wish to visit.  For the historian, it helps find old cemetaries, canals, etc.  Use your i
magination.

Believe it or not, this is a benefit of your government, which you already have paid for.

Absolutely.
