47 38.883 N
122 20.878 W

Those are (as close as I can make it) the exact coordinates of my desk at work.

Edit: I got the coordinates off by about 200 ft because I typed in the wrong set of numbers. I updated them.

Lock target and fire for effect!

:)

I need to calculate my desk coords again.

Hmmmmmm. I must have entered it wrong. Unless you actually do work in Kent? But I don't think so.

Oh, if you work north of the King Co line, that might be the reason my database is coming up with a strange result...

Hmm... I work in Freemont, almost directly under Aurora. www.lostourdoors.com puts me at the right place.

Correction: I put in the wrong coords, but just by 200 ft or so. Shouldn't put me in Kent tho.

As near as I can figure, the location of my living room sofa, where I'm typing this on my laptop:

93º 15′36.773″W
45º 02′29.708″N

Follow up: the actual 45th parallel is about 4 miles south of me. It passes about 3 blocks south of the house I grew up in. :-)

I grew up just south of the 45th, too. Hee!
