I had originally intended for the numbers to be negated. After reading the discussion and thinking about it, I changed them to not be negated. Negating one of them but not the other, as I did by mistake, is completely wrong. This story is not intended to explore chirality.
Your traditional nautical coordinates are much better. I have changed it to degrees, minutes and seconds.
I feel honoured :) But it appears that I made a mistake: I believe it was supposed to be 34° North, not 32° as I wrote. Just a typo. I’m not really sure what position is actually intended though. Note that Google Maps seems to be confused in the area, and the streetgrid is offset from the satellite image. This seems very appropriate :)
Further nitpick: you dropped one ” in the new text above.
Also, the position 34° 16′ 37“ N, 108° 57′ 42” E is usually read outloud as: 34 degrees, 16 minutes and 37 seconds North, 108 degrees, 57 minutes and 42 seconds East, including the “and”. Oxford comma entirely optional.

Re: Google Maps being offset in China. See this for explanations:
The muggles are finding very elaborate ways to justify the confusion to themselves!
Fixed. Thanks again.
Cool! But you only corrected my mistake in the second instance, not the first.
Fixed. Thanks.
