New Map Proves World Is Upside Down

Let's start with the basics. Where is Princeton?

As can be seen clearly on this map (or not so clearly--I took this photo on a very hazy day), Princeton is on the west coast of the United States.

It was long assumed that our country was south of Canada, but a fresh look at the data has proven this not to be the case. Now that up is the new down, Princetonians will need to adopt a west coast mentality. Some good news for those seeking stability in these topsy-turvy times: Central Jersey remains central no matter which way is up. And the map below shows definitively what few hereabouts would contest, that Princeton is located at the center of the world.
