</span>If there's radiation then I expect there to be some danger area or<br>
something. If there's a crater, we can map the crater.<br>

</span>I'm cleaning Lummerland in the middle of the ocean even though it's<br>
neither disturbing nor confusing other mappers ;)<br>
<br>
I see the need to clean this up because it is hard to explain to people,<br>
in other situations, that we're mainly about surveying and everyone<br>
improving on the work of the others when at the same time we have<br>
thousands of un-surveyable and un-verifiable sites in the database.<br>
(Sites that will, unless they're mapped erroneously, *never* *ever*<br>
change, because by definition these nodes refer to something that has<br>
happened in the past which cannot be changed by anything that happens in<br>
the future - unlike a house that can be torn down, or a boundary that<br>
can be changed.)<br>
