For people who can't get to Pearl Harbor or don't have the
physical ability to negotiate stairs when they get to the 
berthed site of the USS Missouri, the ship's memorial 
association has installed a series of Web cameras. The 
Pacific Business Journal is reporting that the first four 
of the cams are now up and running. If all goes well,
during the next two years a total of 100 tiny cams will
be installed in and around the vessel, which was used as
the "floating surrender platform" for the signing of the
treaty with Japan at the end of the Second World War.
The "Mighty Mo" is permanently "parked" at Pearl Harbor
in "Battleship Row." Check it out at ussmissouri.org on 
the Internet. By the way, because of the importance of the 
vessel in Japanese history, the Web site is also viewable 
with Japanese language characters.
