I'd feel better if that was a planet or two. You realize that Russia can be seen from Alaska on a clear day?

Sara Palin said so herself and I don't doubt that for a minute. Look at the map below:



Besides the mainland, there are several islands that belong to Alaska that are even closer to Russia.

Keep in mind that Alaska once belonged to Russia until Russia brokered the sale with then Secretary of State William Seward to avoid England, who then still controlled Canada, taking Alaska from Russia without compensation. I wouldn't put it past Ras Putin to lust after lost territory, considering he is as mad as the monk we have been associating him with.

I have to be more careful with passwords and log in more often to various services. Tonight I noticed that my password on one of the MS services was going to expire already in less than 4 million years. Luckily I got the advance notification, changed the password so no worries :).

Just a reminder, not all experts are real experts:
