RE: Re: Guess the location of this photo

Mike,

It's not difficult or a mystery at all to repair the busted link. It's plainly visible over the two lines, and it's obvious to the naked eye what had happened to it. Copy it onto a single line and paste it into your browser.

It's Fort Covington NY on the Quebec border as can easily be seen because the link itself takes you to a mapping service that clearly identifies everything, so as I said it is mysteriuous to me why the original poster made a guessing game out of posting a link to site that actually did the identifying for us.

And as others have plainly made clear over the last few weeks, boundary point is *not* exclusively for multipointing, only "especially." I grow weary of reading you continue to toss in lectures to folks about trying to discuss only your area of interest when they bring up non-multipointing issues that are specifically within the mission of the group, to wit:  " We also occasionally discuss general boundary issues, and the human ramifications of political boundaries." Recall that one of our more interesting exchanges in this group was the Great Sussex NJ Octagon, followed by Ellis/Liberty Island issues and of course my introduction to you, OKTX Red River issues.

Kevin
