Which Way To The Border?

Here's one you may not have seen...there's a new cell phone app that has been developed to help with illegal border crossing. Handy huh?

Ricardo Dominguez, an associate professor at UC San Diego, led a team of people to create this little number. He says all one has to do is download the app onto an inexpensive web capable phone and presto, you're on your way to the good old U.S. of A. in no time.

He says he did it because too many people die trying to cross into this country, seems getting lost is a problem when travelling into foreign lands. So he's doing his civic responsibility to help America by guiding illegal immigrants into our country via a cell phone application.

I'm sure this type of power will only be used for good and not evil. I'm sure no drug cartels will be able to get this technology and use it to their advantage. I'm just sure of it.

Wonder if the study of how to create the technology was taxpayer funded courtesty of UC San Diego?

WHAT? EARTH TO ANONYMOUS @ 2:52PM. I guess a high-tech road map via cell phone technology commentary = a question about an already outdated/updated City of Lake Elsinores five year old plus General Plan. OK, I'm there. Dooootodootoodootdeeeeeedo.

Well, in answer to your question about the General Plan, I have a memo in front of me here that says staff expects the EIR to finish the 45-day mandatory circulation around April 5th, 2010. Public hearings would then be scheduled for late April/early May 2010.

What a great idea. Maybe the state government will subsidize the cost of the cell phones for a little added incentive! This guy should be fired from his taxpayer funded job and then deported directly to Mexico.
