Volunteers track Santa's progress, answer calls
By Dan Elliott
Phones were ringing non-stop at Peterson Air Force Base, where the annual effort to track Santa's movements is based.
PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. (http://www.bing.com/maps/default.aspx?form=MSNNDL&q=Peterson%20Air%20Force%20Base,%20Colorado,%20Uni ted%20States) — Volunteers pulled on their Santa hats Monday morning, and began answering phone lines and monitoring wall-size tracking screens as NORAD Tracks Santa launched its 57th annual goodwill mission.
The first shift of Santa trackers started taking calls early Monday, telling children — and some adults — when Santa is due at their house. The last shift won't end until nearly 24 hours later. So far, volunteers have answered more than 41,000 phone calls from children asking about the jolly old elf.
The maps show Santa is nearing Denmark on his journey west. NORAD says he has delivered more than 3.5 billion presents so far.

The volunteers are working from Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colo., home of the North American Aerospace Defense Command.
