Track Santa

Postby megaptera » Mon Dec 24, 2012 6:10 am

Hi,
Don't forget to track Santa again this year (or your kids might like this too!)
Here: http://www.noradsanta.org/en/track.html

Background:
http://www.noradsanta.org/en/why.html

"For more than 50 years, NORAD and its predecessor, the Continental Air Defense Command (CONAD) have tracked Santa's flight. The tradition began in 1955 after a Colorado Springs-based Sears Roebuck & Co. advertisement misprinted the telephone number for children to call Santa. Instead of reaching Santa, the phone number put kids through to the CONAD Commander-in-Chief's operations "hotline." The Director of Operations at the time, Colonel Harry Shoup, had his staff check the radar for indications of Santa making his way south from the North Pole. Children who called were given updates on his location, and a tradition was born."
