Hey Carlson,
That's that fake picture that's been circulating...no
satellite could do that in one night...clouds should
cover most of the SE US...plus, it's got the wrong
regions blacked out! PLUS, download the pict, increase
the contrast, and it isn't black any more; its gray!
Someone penciled or penned it in to make a fake.
Clear Skies,
Tom W

Tom:

What? You mean I can't believe everything I see on the internet?

Bummer. What's next? No more budget surpluses?

For more information on the fakery, see http://tinyurl.com/l67y

Mea culpa.
