As cool as pornography relative to sex.


Could you explain your analogy in a bit more detail? Google Maps is like pornography, and ... what ... is like sex? Physical paper maps? (I'm not seeing the big difference compared with electronic ones.) The actual full-size terrain itself? (OK, sure, but that's a bit tricky to carry around with you and use for route planning.)


The ecstasy of Earth from heaven; yes, impractical for terrestrial route planning.
