    While listening the latest episode about the Aztec case I got an idea - what if we pinpoint (on Google Map) each case, being discussed in particular episode within a thread devoted to this episode. I think it would be really interesting to, so to speak, get a picture of Aztec, Roswell, Rendlesham forrest case place look like.

    Google Earth might be a tad better. I know you can construct 'kml' files that can be passed around. All you do is load the kml file and the sites would appear. Of course, someone has to do the initial work. Are you volunteering? :)

    Absolutely and yes the kml file is even a better idea.

    I'm not sure. Let me give it a try.

    Nope. Even as a mod I can't do it. I can move a post to a new thread or an existing thread, but I don't see an option of moving a post up or down within a thread. Not to state the obvious, but, of course, you can edit your own post and add new information.

    Schuyler, I may be talking out of turn here, but is there an option to change it to a sticky post???

    Of course not! But I sure don't see it. Maybe Gene will weigh in here. His super powers are greater than mine! :)

    Looks to me like you can stick a thread, but not a post within a thread. Unless I'm not understanding something here.
