Cool pic! Why arent there any lights in Canada? I know Canadians are slow but cīmon...
The lights can't get through all that snow and ice :dg:Quote:

Sorry to say, that photo is fake. I had that emailed to me and I forwarded it on to some friends. One of my buddies sent me this link that shows the actual sattelite photos from the gov't. Looks like that pic is a good photoshop edit.
