From Chicago, the geodesic lies a few hundred km south of Iceland. Flying from NY to London should make the geodesic move further south. Unless I am missing something. When I've flown to the UK, we passed south of Iceland, but never over it. It would be fun to visit there some day though. -- Joseph Landman, Ph.D Founder and CEO Scalable Informatics Inc. email: land...@scalableinformatics.com web : http://scalableinformatics.com http://scalableinformatics.com/sicluster phone: +1 734 786 8423 x121 fax : +1 866 888 3112 cell : +1 734 612 4615 _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
