Well, that was mildly weird. I was messing with maps.google.com, looking at the satellite images zoomed way out to get a feel for how much coverage they have of the detailed satellite photos (~5% or so it seems).
So then I started panning around and zooming in kind of randomly. And I got down to about two notches up from the most detail, and thought “that kind of looks like Knoxville, TN, where the 82 Worlds Fair was”. Zooming out on the street map, and surprisingly, I was right. Odd.
I did actually go to the 82′ Worlds Fair though.
I was at the ’82 as well. Did you go to the computer expo and see the machines they had setup doing speech synthesis? I remember one allowed you to run BASIC programs on it. I remember going to Ripley’s in Gatlinburg aftewards.
Heh, don’t remember that, but I do remember the touch screen computers and the introduction of the “juicebox” style milk containers. And the robots that could “draw” for you.
