Ask Mappoint on MSN.Com for driving directions from Haugesund, Norway to Trondheim, Norway, and it whimsically suggests that you cross the North Sea from Haugesund to the north of England, then south to London and Canterbury and Chatham, then through the Channel Tunnel to France, thence to the Low Countries and through the north of Germany, across the Baltic Sea to Sweden and finally north to your destination, a total of over 1,600 miles.
I am not that familiar with Norway; perhaps it is very difficult to drive a direct route in the Winter months?
If Bill Gates will spring for the gas, I?d sure love to take the excursion (although I?m not sure how reliable the ferry service is from Haugesund to Newcastle-Upon-Tyne in January).
N.B. Note the ?disclaimer? at the bottom of the Mappoint web page: ?Your right to use maps and routes generated on the MSN service is subject at all times to the MSN Terms of Use.? Are they really suggesting that Microsoft Network has some say over what highways you may drive on?
And we thought MS? arrogance had been diminished by all that antitrust litigation.
