    If Oslo, Norway and Stockholm, Sweden are almost a single degree of latitude, what’s the difference between them and Helsinki, Finland?

    If Texas would only secede, the Capitol of Texas would be only 1.5 deg of lat. south of the Knesset in Jerusalem with over 7100 miles between them.(Determined using daftlogic.com.)

    Really? And just how do they know that the baby and Mom were actually communicating? Did she instruct the baby to brush its teeth or something? I suspect that it made no difference whether it was mother and child or just hearing the vocalization between two dolphins.

    …and so we disproved the theory that dolphins might be more intelligent than humans. The mom’s first message to the baby was an invite to play Candy Crush on Facebook.

    When I see the word “degree” for Norway and Sweden, I’m thinking of the other definintion. When I see the word “latitude” in something involving politics, I’m again thinking of the other definition.

    “Believe It Or Not… a man in France was awoken by his alarm, three times this week…”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    That’s pretty hard to believe -Do they have any definitive proof?

    So if man can’t communicate with the other intelligent mammals of Earth, with 99% common DNA, how are going to communicate with the civilized aliens of a far-off planet with very few common DNA?

    Las Angeles California is East of Reno Nevada. But way south.

    “awakened’ would be better …

    London, UK, and Calgary, Alberta are also at nearly the same latitude, as is Ottawa, Que … but they are much farther apart …
