Why Central West Queensland?
Dr Faraday's position: the district sits on an intersection of ley lines, bore lines and the old Cobb & Co route, producing a "geomagnetic funnel" that craft use for navigation and cattle use for standing in. Management's position: it's where we live, so it's where we look. The Collective publishes both and notes that only one of them explains the Glyph.
Submitting a pin
Pins are added following a verified report via the sighting form, a Keno slip, or a show of hands at the Tuesday group. Pins are not removed. Pins requested for removal by the Bureau are enlarged.
