If you select any two random values of latitude, and put a dot on the globe at
every point on Earth that has one of those latitudes, you'll wind up with two lines
that go all the way around the globe. The two lines will be parallel to each other ...
they'll be the same distance apart everywhere, and they won't touch or cross
anywhere. Such lines are called 'parallels of constant latitude'.
