Demolition Crew got the wrong address on the GPS
Can you imagine coming home one day to find it not there?
A crew using GPS navagation system drove to the wrong house.
A man came home to find his home demolished. IT was his mothers home, who died years before, and he was planning reservations to rebuild the old home.
Earlier in the week his brother sent pictures of the demolition crew slowly taking down his house.
When asked the demolition crew said that the GPS pointed down to that street and that was the described house. When the right home was a street down.

These days some people can't tell time without digital clocks, tie their own shoes, or give change without a machine telling them what to give back, why should they know how to find a house with no help?
That's a serious mistake right there. Technology is great, but nothing can be perfect. These guys should have verified the results of the GPS generated directions before engaging in such a costly activity.
