Where's USMB?

[JGalt]

Tracing a route to usmessageboard.com goes through several steps, until it reaches an "Unknown" point at latitude 37.751 longitude -97.822. Those coordinates correspond to a location outside of Hutchinson, KS...

A Whois shows that USMB is being hosted by CLOUDFLARENET at 101 Townsend St. San Francisco, CA. 94107, so evidently there's a data link between the Hutchinson point that connects to the SF address...

So here's a Google street view of where USMB resides:

Cool, huh?

Actually, a ISP location in the middle of the country indicates that they've set their location as "United States" and that's the middle location in the US.

Probably 'lost' it off-shore in some tax haven. Or blew it on toys, a bigger house, etc.

Partying with Hunter, maybe.
