holograph Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I wonder if the governor paid the fine. Quote Link to comment
mloser Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Way to overreact Oklahoma! As if the helipad couldn't be built 10 feet to one side, or even out of a material that wouldn't have destroyed the mark. There is no evidence of the pad on Google Earth, even going back to 1990. It was probably torn up soon after it was installed. Quote Link to comment
