OK, I just checked on google earth and saw no red x'es, however the 2 geometric "anomalies" are still there as reported on another thread. If you look carefully, it seems that it might be a glitch as the blacked space sort of lines up with the "vectors on the globe. I mean, the software for the weather option patches the globe with several vectores like a patchwork, its not just one big image. The anomalies, seem to follow the edge of those vectors, so it could be a glitch.
BUT: this is why I am posting, these blacked out spaces remind me alot of what I read and saw on Richard Boyland's webspace about some stolen "ET beacons" that were safely returned to space. Look at the links and you will see. Suposedly, 3 space beacons had been positioned in space close to earth and they were brought down by the cabal.....these beacons were not visible if you walked by them, they were cloaked and invisible, but suposedly they were pysically there. The way to see them was to look at satelite imagry, the outline showed up there because they "reflected" of the satalite radar.
Anyways, check the links, it seems to be somewhat similar to what we see now.
