ICBM address
(Or "missile address") The form used to
register a site with the {Usenet} mapping project includes a
space for longitude and latitude, preferably to seconds-of-arc
accuracy. This is actually used for generating
geographically-correct maps of {Usenet} links on a plotter;
however, it has become traditional to refer to this as one's
"ICBM address" or "missile address", and many people include
it in their {sig block} with that name. (A real missile
address would include target altitude.)
