3001 Ad Over San Diego Mis-interpreted

ESRI UC 06

The San Diego Union Tribune notes that odd skywriting interpretted as "BOO!" over the city made many think it was related to an alleged terror plot uncovered in the UK last week.

In fact, last Thursday evening, during the ESRI party, “3001,” the name of the aerial mapping was writtten in the sky.

The paper says that some residents who thought “BOO!” was written over Lindbergh Field. Jay Arnold, senior director of 3001 Inc.'s business development in Alabama said the company did the same thing last year.
