[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 6346, member: 3"] [b]Re: a "Let\'s argue" thread[/b] [B]Ian[/B] Just dumb luck. 10:30 wind is difficult to calc. [B]Steve[/B] Let me think on this 3 answer... Yup, I agree the South Ploe is one for sure. North 1 mile, east 1 mile then south 1 mile back to the South Pole. I believe you'd have walked about 1/6 the way around the planet at 1 mile north of the South pole moving toward the east. But I can't see how you'd be able to start at one of the points of the triangle (1 mile north of the South Pole) and walk 1 mile south then walk 1 mile east...at the South Pole ALL directions are north, there is no east or west. Tell me some more about your thinking on this alternative South Pole method. I believe that with the exclusion I placed (20 mile area) there are only two places. The South pole as you selected and a point 1.5 miles south of the North Pole. In the North Pole version the person walks north 1 mile to a point .5 miles from the North pole, then walks east all the way around the planet and then proceeds south on top of his/her original tracks back to thestarting point (triangle in the south and an "O" with a tail in the north).
