I am very sorry to send corrections to your video, courtesy of my wife. She says that after perusing a map (a time waster at best, and always useless exercise, according to her) the folded map should be in the shape and size of a tennis ball. She further points out your video is NEGLIGENT in NOT indicating WHERE a properly re-folded map should be stored! Of course, we all know that maps fare well alongside gum wrappers, pennies (remember them?), dropped peppermints, etc., under the front seat of an automobile. Manufacturers have been very uncooperative, however, and have filled (stolen!) the map storage space with little electric motors and wires that move the seat around, hence requiring further compression to ping-pong ball dimensions. The upside of all these little motors is that one can glide the seat back and forth on the stored maps, thus squishing them to make additional room for its companions. And I have one last question for you Harmony - a real head scratcher. Why does the state of California allow one to read paper maps while driving but forbids the use of handheld devices under the same circumstances?
Well, I don’t use either paper or handheld. My shotgun-riding wife opens the map to its full height and width, thus blocking her side of the windshield, her side window, and the rearview mirror on her side. Changing lanes to the right becomes a bit of a crapshoot and sometimes exciting, especially for the other driver who unknowingly is taking up the space I want in that lane. She revolves the map until the lettering is right-side up, then studies it for perhaps one half second before forcefully determining that the map is useless. The Rosetta Stone was decrypted more easily than she could read the map. Fusion will become economically feasible before she can figure out a map of the Delaware Valley. However, she DOES fold the map properly and somehow finds space in which to store it.
P. S. I looked under the seat of my wife’s car (more like an archeological expedition and dig, and a joy for my chiropractor) and found mints, wrappers, coins, tokens, receipts, lipstick, eyeliner (Does California allow drivers to apply eyeliner while in motion?), an earring, a sock (one of those tiny exercise ones), some dog treats, Doritos, three supermarket shopping lists, and a map of Kansas. WHAAAAT? Kansas? We live in Pennsylvania and for her, a ten-mile drive requires preparation such as that undertaken by Conestoga waggoneers. Anyway, I think it was Kansas. The map was damp, in ribbons, and well on its way to being returned to the paper pulp from which it came.
Harmony, I sincerely hope you find the foregoing useful for future posts.
