Map Week, Day 7: Tetrahedronal Planets?
Feb. 9th, 2007 10:38 amClosing out Map Week with a bit of cartographic humour.
I'm tempted to swipe
hawkward's "Snerk" icon(or whoever it is that designed it originally) for this one. Honestly.
Can you believe that once someone suggested, in all seriousness, that the planet Earth would evolve into a tetrahedronal shape?. It's a joke now, yes. But to the people who wrote the 1918 magazine article linked to by this Strange Maps blog posting? Not so much a joke at the time to them.
Oh, what the Hell. I'll say it anyway.
*snerk*
PS: Tomorrow, it's back to the normal chatter about comics, politics, entertainment in general, life in general. Thanks for putting up with my diversion into maps this week!
