point to note: if you look at the White House in both services, you'll find two interesting things. (1) Both have had the roofs of the White House, EOB, and Treasury airbrushed out. (2) If you look closely at thecars and people on Pennsylvania Ave. in front of the WH, you will see that the two photos are in fact identical. On some sampling, this is not true
elsewhere, but it raises the question of just whose data they are both using.
