Just by looking at the shape and colour of these tiny cars parked outside an Australian car dealership I can identify them as Hyundai and Audi cars. Pretty impressive, huh?

Perched on the side of Mount Zion in Colorado is a giant ‘M’ for the Colorado School of Mines. The school claims that it is the ‘largest electronically-lit school emblem in the world’, a claim which is disputed by Brigham Young University, whose giant illuminated ‘Y’ is clearly much larger.

However, the M is definitely older, and has also been lighted for a good thirty years longer – so Colorado is entitled to lay claim to having the ‘oldest electronically lit school emblem in the world’ . . . if they wanted to that is.

A couple of readers pointed out a cool-looking pumping station (in the thumbnail) and another not-so-cool one, both in Lake Michigan. Presumably they are both involved in pumping water towards the nearby city of Chicago; Lake Michigan is the largest freshwater lake in the US and supplies the drinking water for some 10 million people.

Strangely both pumping stations come with a free plane passing overhead. What’s the chances?
