Haha... The evil monks over in South Korea must've soiled their shorts when, whilst surfing the globe with Google Earth, they discovered there for everyone to see was their supposedly secret army base. An ingenius evil plan unwittingly foiled by geeks... South Korea are throwing their toys and armoury out of the cot at the US Google Earth saying that it could aid their arch-enemies North Korea and lead to their downfall.

I'd be typing away only to find that the ...
