confluence
From Joel at Pax Nortona I learned of The Degree Confluence Project, which has its goal to “visit each of the latitude and longitude integer degree intersections in the world, and to take pictures at each location”
These are the entries for the four intersections nearest me:
33N 97W 33N 96W
32N 97W 32N 96W

It’s one of the cooler “collect the largest ball of string” projects that I’ve seen on the web. I’d rather have people chasing these points than chasing naked women with a paintball gun any day.

I love the last one: Convergence Office Park. Now there’s a landmark that deserves the name!
