First go here,



Then if you are among the few you can go straight to it ! Every time.
The others may have to search. But not too far because you ARE in ______, anymore.

Another serve of frustration and grief (F&G).
Over 250 hit's without one of F&G's expert's being able to crack it.......What's going on.

I admit to have taken liberties with the center of everything- the building is 3.34m. from the center.

Re: Journey to the Center of the Earth CLUE #2

OK,
Here's an explanation of the Clues:

>>>>>>>>>We're looking for something- the CENTER OF THE EARTH
Which earth?

It's not here- Well Toto is being held captive by a blue flying monkey
"Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas any more. "
It's not not in KANSAS

You might get hungry on the way so stop here for a (not big) MAC
"You are in Kansas anymore"

Default is what?

Not the most common one but the other

3.34m? Well it is.

Sorry if this has too many layers!

With Farrelli's help and his patience with my questions:



If I may give a clue:

>> It's not really the center, but it's a start. <<

Thank goodness for that, I've been thinking I was on Google Mars or similar. What does it all mean Danes?

OK,

Having chased enough European national "notables" who fought battles on hills behind farms and then said something clever, I'll not apologize for posting clues that are slightly less eurocentric.

The references to "The Wizard of OZ" and the visual references to it point to Kansas - which has the default views for US Google Earth.

However I do understand the confusion about the flying monkey and Toto image - one could easily view that as a suggestion the the dog was being held captive by George Bush.

Cheers,

M.

you really don't have to. I like to see more puzzles with influences from all around the world. but as to your clues.. I still don't get 'em.. [edit] thanks to danes, now I do, but stuck with the same question as farce.. no wonder I couldn't find it, I have no mac and erased the default long time ago.[/edit]
