This is a definite laugh, in the form of a map of Florida showing how Hurricanes Ivan, Frances and Charlie between them attacked all the bits of Florida that voted Bush in 2000 and carefully avoided all the bits that voted Gore. I don't know if this ever got as far as the Mainstream Media in the USA. If they did I'm guessing some pompous Republican accused it (the Mainstream Media) of blasphemy and political bias, and pointed out that God is obviously a pompous Republican too. So hurrah for the Internet that we can still get to chuckle over this. Like the previous posting, this is a fine example of what the democratisation of computer graphics plus the Internet has made possible. And unlike the thing in the previous posting, no one is claiming that this is art. It's too good a joke to need that kind of justification.

I got to this via here and to there via here.

My computer refuses to look for more than a few tiny moments at this map in its full size version. It makes it fit the screen, and I can't make it stop that. The problem is that if the map is not full size, the lettering is gobbledegook. Anyone know what I should do about that? I had to save the map and look at it in Photoshop, because when Photoshop is told to keep if full size it does, and I then scrolled.
