You want to see something really eerie and sad?

The Google Maps satellite view for Marysville is now obviously post-Black Saturday. You can see how few buildings are left in the town. But if you drag the little Street View man onto the streets, Street View is still pre-fires. So you can virtually walk around a town and look at a pretty town that's almost totally destroyed in satellite view.

It's especially jarring because you can see the satellite view tucked in at lower right of the frame. And because all the labels for the B&Bs and shops and hotels all still show up, even though they are showing up over empty plots.

That's really rather odd :/
