Interstate 80 in Reno; Sierra Nevadas
Hi Viatologists,
As a well-sought destination along Interstate 80 (...including former US Federal Route 40 and the Lincoln Highway), Reno was put onto the map for its gambling, booze and straight-out good times. While many think of Reno as a desert town, they may not realise that the city gets its share of snow in the wintertime. The Worldwide Highway Library, the *first* viatologist's website to largely devote roadside coverage in large cities domestic and abroad, now offers a view of Interstate 80 *in* the shadowlands of the Sierras and less than a kilometre west of US Federal Route 395: http://worldwide-hwys.calrog.com/tmp/1403/ You may notice this file's in the temp directory. What does that mean? Well, all files in the "temporary" directory get purged after several days. That said, be sure to visit soon and catch the snow this time around! For more pictures of Interstate 80, from California, Nevada, Utah and beyond, the Worldwide Highway Library is your premier source for the USA's cross-continental highway. To get this fantastic content, simply navigate to the following: http://worldwide-hwys.calrog.com > Photographs > Americas > United States > USA Interstate Highways > Interstates Enjoy!

Wrong. Actually, I will personally guarantee you that these days (the wintry days) far more people from California come to the Reno area with the intention of skiing, snowboarding, and various other winter-time activities. Of course they'll probably gamble while they are here, but to say that people come to Reno to gamble is not entirely accurate. |

It means you're constantly screwing around with the files so you can keep peppering away with new pronouncements about the same pictures to try to increase your site hits.

Please clarify. > The Worldwide Highway Library, the *first* viatologist's website and the *only* one, for that matter... Which reminds me, other than "something Carl made up to irk English speaking strangers online worldwide" (paraphrased) I still haven't gotten a clear answer on what "viatologist" is suppose to mean.
