Thank you for your feedback, Catchpa. It is, as always, most appreciated. However, even though it saddens me greatly, I have to say "right back at you", or, alternatively, "pot, kettle, black". Similar topics have been discussed countless times with no proper explanations from RE'ers. If you do have a grand rebuttal, which for some reason you haven't used by now, I encourage you to bring it up. Due to the fact that asking you to use the search function simply won't work, please find a shortened answer below. Should you seek a more detailed one... oh well, search ftw.
Are you arguing with yourself?
No. I'm sorry for not making myself entirely clear. To further explain: a spherical and flat earth would both appear circular on two-dimensional pictures. Ergo, a two-dimensional picture is hardly relevant to the subject of the Earth's shape.
thanks for clearing that one up.

what up? I said it's circular. Circular and spherical are not the same thing.
