I've just finished to watch the movie "Speed 2" on DVD. The story : during a carribean cruise, a psychopath take control of the ship's computer and navigation systems. During the movie, we have the opportunity to watch the computer navigation screen. It shows : **************** Course settings: Longitude : 182 Latitude : 203 Bearing : 165 **************** Well, I don't know where in the universe is this place, but if the navigation officer had made even the worst observations with the worst plastic sextant, He had found the ship was no longer on course...
