Mapping

I really love listening to This American Life on Sundays. For a special treat I go to the local coffee shop and grab a chai and a Sunday New York Times. Today I'm catching up on the radio show, and am loving the October 19th episode about mapping; what maps are made up of, what information is allowed, and what is left out. Maps are quite focused, and give the viewer only select items to see. Or in the case of one of the radio pieces, even hear. Anyways, its a good show to check out and listen to while doing something else.
