GPS systems

Good Morning. This is the last day to present snack recipes for my contest. I must admit there are some fabulous recipes…and my peppers are taking a backseat to many…imagine that I already know I am done… Oh well it was a gallant try. I will post winners tomorrow, stay tuned. Ok here is a reoccurring theme of late. More people who put their brains on "standby" while using satellite navigation systems: In July, a group of 10 children and 16 adults from California were stranded in their cars in wilderness near cliffs close to the Grand Canyon, to which they had been misdirected by their navigation system. Rescuers were able to talk them back the next day on their cell phones. Also in July, a truck driver hauling a 32-ton load from Turkey through several European countries headed for Gibraltar in the southern tip of Spain missed his destination by about 1,600 miles, winding up at a dead end in Skegness, England. (Gibraltar is a British territory, though nowhere near the British Isles, but both places have a "Coral Road," which was the destination.) Who does this? I mean use common sense don’t just allow satellite navigation systems to drive the car…I heard a story once but shrugged it off to nonsense when I heard a person place their car in cruise control and drove into a lake…who does that? Common sense apparently is not all that common.. Well look forward to tomorrows contest winners and today have a fabulous day A huge hug and assorted pats Marty
