SUSAN STAMBERG, Host: And another mistake, this time in direction. In his story last week about maps, NPR's Dan Charles concluded this way.</s>DAN CHARLES: SOUND BITE OF A BUZZER</s>SUSAN STAMBERG, Host: Dan, what happened?</s>DAN CHARLES: I really don't know what happened. I got my letters and directions mixed up. After those letters came in, I went to this marvelous piece of software called Google-Earth, where you can plug in coordinates and go to that place. So I put in those wrong coordinates and we went swooping northward up toward Greenland. And I felt, as I looked at the screen, I felt myself disappearing into this vast expanse of snow and whiteness. And I ended up in the middle of Greenland, 7,000 feet up. It was disorienting and I felt very, very alone.</s>SUSAN STAMBERG, Host: NPR's Dan Charles.</s>FRANK SINATRA: Where are you?

Susan Stamberg notes two corrections: The Native American Rights Fund got a "C" (not a failing grade) from a philanthropy watchdog interviewed for a report in December. And Dan Charles confused his coordinates in a recent report on high-tech mapping. NPR is not really located in Northern Greenland, as his numbers suggested.
