I can't find that "Cross hairs" symbol used on any survey map
I will admit that I can find places where a vertical line and a horizontal line meet at right angles, but I can't find a circle around it. Shouldn't someone be asked to provide proof that this is a symbol used on maps?

I guess the DUmmie should have went to the source. http://egsc.usgs.gov/isb/pubs/booklets/symbols/topomapsymbols.pdf About halfway down the page, on the right side under "Control Data and Monuments"

9. You should send this to some of the news shows
I doubt they have done the research, and are just running with the Palin camp's statement.
