What’s in a name…

The first question anyone would ask might be “How in the world, did he come up with the blog name?!!?” It looks pretty convoluted, which I certainly will not deny. I knew I had to show the actual distance of Beaufort Sea from Bangalore but also the fact that Beaufort Sea was 200 miles to the North of the Arctic Circle. Hence this weird nomenclature of using the latitude of Bangalore (12.970214° N 77.56029° E) and the latitude of Beaufort Sea (72°01′40″N, 137°02′30″W). I know I did round up the values but that was the only way I could make it succinct enough but still within the ballpark estimate.
