  1. Go to http://maps.google.com

    Click on Get Directions

    In the top box (starting point), type in Las Vegas NV

    In the bottom box (destination), type in Honolulu HI

    Use the drop-down list to select "By Car", then click "Get Directions"

    Read #17....

    Yeah, that's kinda why I had to test it again - I heard somewhere - and tried it with a mix of Eastern USA cities to London or Dublin, and it told you to "Swim across the Atlantic Ocean".... 😄

    Ah well, no doubt their lawyers told them they could get sued or something if some idiot tried to do it for real.

  5. Atlantic Ocean bug found in 2007 - read #12.... 😄
