Good point - although anyone who uses an electronic gizmo without also
using
a proper map deserves to get lost.
On a trip to the left coast a few years ago, I was being chauffeured around
by a young lawyer in a new Mercedes SUV. She had recently relocated to LA
and was relying on the Nav system in her fine German auto.
At one point the NAV system went kaput, no output at all. She was totally
lost and had no paper map in the vehicle. Finally stopped in a gas station
for directions back to my hotel!
Nav system,,,,, I don't need no stinkin Nav system,,,,,,

I'm amused by the fact that men have a reputation of never
using a map or asking directions. But put the map and
directions into an electronic gizmo and it's an entirely
different story.
