I hear they might be taking it down before too long. I hope the link still works for you when you get it.

It's nice but you realize all those images can be gotten for free. They are government images, tax dollars paid for them so they are yours. If you buy that thing, you're really only paying the $10 for the flash interface they put on the images.

Hah! I didn't even realize it was for sale. Guess I shouldn't have saved the page to my harddrive.

I have seen that before, and it is simply amazing, it makes you feel so small.

I do find it surprising that people would buy it. It is kind of like watching PBS. At the end of the show they offer the show on VHS for 39.95, and I wonder besides teachers who would buy it if they just finished watching.
