What's New?

April 28 2006 - Sent a virtual 3-D letter to Ray Johnson. See if you can find it in the 3D Warehouse . You will need to install Google Earth (free) if you want to find the hidden letter on the Google Earth map. If you download the Sketchup application (free), then you will be able to view, read and edit the letter in 3-D. Here is a screen shot for the curious: Screenshot 001 And here it is sitting on the earth: Screenshot002.
