  3. Regardless who Norad partners with. on The History of the NORAD/Microsoft and Google Santa Trackers · · Score: 1

    Regardless who Norad partners with, I will use them. Why you ask? That's easy, they have the radar. I am pretty sure Google is just making stuff up as I don't think they have the radar facilities that the US and Canada have. So when I want to reliably track that red suited bastard, I'll ask the guys who actually know.

    This year I got some new Starstreaks to replace my FIM-92j's, I'm pretty sure I'll shoot him down this time.

    "The Chinese need to be TOLD to just sit tight"

    There are many cities where random pickups by taxi's (hailing) are illegal, you have to call and schedule a pickup, but they are still taxis, and still regulated.
