Why This Mountain Range Can't Be Found By Any Human

[@itsdragoman]

The Mountweazel is Myrna the cat. Why? Because it's a dog. EDIT: Not only, but the whole part of Myrna the cat has been edited in such a way to believe that Myrna is actually a cat: Cat on the back of the cover (with glasses) ✓ Cat quote on the back by Trilby A.

I came across a copywrite trap on a map once, though it wasn't a fictitious town. While studying the terrain around Holbrook, Arizona in the Arizona Atlas and Gazetteer, published by DeLorme, I saw a very small, about 3mm wide, cartoon of a frog. I kept looking at it to discern if it was somehow a land feature. I finally got out a magnifying glass and confirmed it was a frog. I found a regional phone number for DeLorme and gave them a call to report what I found and to suggest they had made a mistake. After a bit of a go-round, I was finally patched to someone who could address my concerns. He confirmed that the frog was a "mark of authenticity" or something like that and congratulated me for finding it. Thanks for the video. Now I know why it was put there.

I really wish I had seen this video while my father was still alive. As a little Canadian child growing up in Germany, my father often went to Bielefeld for training exercises. The name is as familiar to me as any place name in the areas of Germany where Canadian forts were established as part of the Canadian contingent of British Army on the Rhine establishments. I am certain there are thousands of Canadians who know of the place from their own fathers' service. What a fascinating bit of trivia to learn about the story you tell. I used to have a photo of my father's car, or rather what was left of it, following a wreck on his way home from Bielefeld (iirc). The story I recall was that my father was removed from the wreck and thought to be deceased. Someone noticed a twitch in one of his fingers and he was rushed to a hospital. Since I do know the town and its name, I guess I am in on the conspiracy! What a fun realization - thank you for sharing this!

I worked in bielefeld in 1970/1971 in a car scrapyard. Being from england ( an extremely hilly country) the thing that struck me most about this scrapyard was that it was out in the wilds and in every direction you looked the land was as flat as a pancake, no hills or mountains in the background. No roads or buildings to be seen anywhere except the small backroad we had travelled on to get there. There was a town somewhere in the distance where I was staying, but nowhere near enough to be seen from the scrapyard. That town was called bielefeld. And it was a lovely, quite quaint little place.

S. America.... Ok.. more or less. Yes.. but C. Columbus's depiction of N. America was the Island of Hispaniola and Cuba.... The Is. of Hispaniola is where the D.R. and Haiti are.... This explains why C. Columbus colonized it and spent many years there. Look up "Colonial Zone Santo Domingo"... There are many things to see. His house is still standing from the early 1500s.

It's nice to see my country Bhutan in Thoughty 2's video even if it's just about a mountain. The fact that Gangkar Phuensum's reign as the tallest unclimed mountain is due to its uncertain location on the map is quite bizzare as a Bhutanese which I am quite sure majority has no clue about.

You've fallen for another trap. Australia doesn't actually exist, and neither does its flag. Australia is a particularly elaborate hoax, however. A very large set was created and tens of thousands of actors hired to make it appear to visitors as if it is real. They did a great job too - I've been to the set several times, and it would have been believable if they hadn't gotten carried away with the fake animals.

The Kong mountains are probably similar to the "paper towns" that popped up in the US. Basically, cartographers would make fake towns on maps, so they could tell when they had been plagiarized. The funny twist to that was, so many people would go to this non-existent towns, real settlements started popping up. But obviously that can't happen with mountain ranges.

I remember high alpine hiking in the Alps for 6 days taking my fathers maps with me . Everything went fine until I was supposed to traverse a glacier . Turns out the map was 20 years old and the glacier dramatically has melted and was impossible to traverse on the original path without ice picks and lots of luck . So I had to find another way and found a marker further up the trail to traverse . Got delayed about 2 hours and made it just in time to the shelter before sun set .

I don't think this one should count in the same category. English is reckoned to be a "living language". If any person or group uses a word that is not a mere corruption (like "irregardless"), it becomes a valid word. Even corruptions become valid words through language drift. Even some joke words (such as Colbert's "truthiness") have become valid English words simply through their inclusion in a dictionary. As esquivalience was included in a reputable dictionary, it may therefore be considered a valid word, suitable for inclusion in other dictionaries. That being said, I can't recall ever having heard someone use esquivalience in a sentence, and I am neither a lawyer nor etymologist, so my entire argument may be utter bull $#!+.

For reasons long forgotten I noticed one day that Old Weston Road on the map still connected to Dundas St. W., but familiar with the area, knew well that the bridge that once connected them had been gone for decades .. indeed there was a mature Birch growing right through the center marking line of what was once the bridge ramp. Coincidentally, a decade later I actually found myself having a drink with a lass who was actually the granddaughter of the original Perly and mentioned this - and thus learned of the existence of "paper streets".

There’s a catch in US copyright law: information cannot be copyrighted. The DESIGN of the map CAN be copyrighted, however. Placing an imaginary town or street on a map is not sufficient to show infringement. The court decision on this came about long after the Agloe trap was placed.
