Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience every time.

I'm always confused. He means that he knew that the ship wasnt a bomb. He was just joking, right?

No, I knew it was a ship, I thought that red thing was a bomb. It kinda looks like it from that angle, if you did never see that ship model from a side view.

Jack, I looked for the Great Wall but couldn't find any good shots of it. Most of China is in low-res and the wall doesn't look like much more than a blurred highway.

The worrying thing about this, is terrorists could use it to find back-alleys, map routes etc. Would make it easier to plan a large scale attack. Perhaps that's why places like china and new york aren't very visible.

If you look at D.C. as well, you'll see that the White House is blurred and there is a circle of burredness to the northwest as well - unsure what's supposed to be underneath it.
