    Worlds Geographic Correction

    Just an aside for Worlds readers...Sydney is not on some south-west corner of Victoria - it is on the east coast of Australia, about a third of the way up from the bottom. The location marked for Sydney in the Worlds Earth map is a fictitious block of land sitting somewhere off the coast near Adelaide...

    Unless it got moved 1500 km some time between 2005 and 2375...

    When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It is difficult only for others.

    It's the same when you are stupid...

    Maybe plate tectonics work differently by the 24th century It is Startrek

    it should also be noted Mount everest has moved into mainland China, and London has moved in to the English Channel.. that said with global warming, and a failure of the Thames barrier during world war 3, it might not be far from the truth

    Simple enough, the old Syndney was destroyed in the holocaust of the early 2100's ... the Trek Syndney is a rebuilt 'paradise city' (like Mohave) in the Trek era.

    Last time I was there, New Orleans wasn't in the Florida Panhandle, either. (Maybe it ultimately got rebuilt several states over?)
