Cheney Shooting in Google Earth
Someone at the Google Earth Community who calls himself 'DickCheney' took the time to create a rather graphic 3D model of Vice President Dick Cheney shooting his friend 
in a hunting accident which happened a little over a week ago. I'm not sure if you call this political commentary, or crime scene investigation. But, it's interesting to see Google Earth used in this way.
You may have difficulty when you first load the GE file. I had to raise my eye level a few feet because the camera was so close that the models weren't visible.
According to posts at the GEC, the poster of the model placed his model in the location given in the news as the site of the accident (although there have been hints in the media that the information is questionable). Digg it!

hilarious, very creative use! i wonder if there will be a "news" variant of the google earth program? it could be of use to help people understand headlines and truly where they're happening. maybe a upgrade to the standard issue program, as a weekly update item?
pass it on, maybe it'll fly, though i doubt it.
