I have some doubts about this. The school moved into a new building in 2003 (see here) which doesn't match the vidcaps well. The Trapezium found by Sups looks better.

NiagaraFalls:
Lets see if I can make this make any sense to myself or any of you.

The Niagara River flows North (bizarre, but it does, its not really a River, its actually a strait), but it flows north.  The BOAT rides south INTO the rapids.  That would mean on the left, would be the West, and therefore CANADA.  On the right would be EAST and therefore, the USA. 

For Shadow References.  In the MORNING the Rainbows over the Falls are seen on the US side.  In the EVENING the Rainbows are seen from Canada.

If I had to guess, the Linz's picture looks alot earlier than the Weavers.  To me it seems the shadow is coming straight down on them with just a little extra from the west...making that around 3-4 in the afternoon local time (our sun was setting around 9PM at this time).  The Weavers seem to have a strong sunlight from the West.  There is even a glare on the left side of the screen, or right side of the boat.  The cloud cover was not that much that day, I do acknowledge it could be a factor...but my gut says there is at least an hour or two between these teams.


One last thing...why isnt that parking sign in both French and English?  I realize that not EVERYTHING in Canada is in both, but even at the NIagara border, ALMOSt everything is.

 |(  The cold weather here has obviously frozen my brain cells.  Thanx for keeping me straight.

I won't take the credit for this one.  Coksy lives in Montreal and she thinks that they went to Cirque de Soleil.  Campus Training Center and World Headquarters are in Montreal.

I can't get the google map in here.  Don't know what I am doing wrong, but here is the address......Chateau to the rescue ???
