This is interesting as we also have a homeless dino-map here in
British Columbia .. and also once claiming the title of world's largest map
see: http://www.challengermap.org/home.htm
Like the 70 ton map, anyone who saw it in its prime, considered it
spectacular and worthy of preserving: not as handy as a digital online
equivalent but superior visually. We need to find a sponsor such as
Google to create a Jurassic Map Park for these pre-digital giant monster
maps.

Folks:
Our colleague Matt Rosenberg (mrgeog) tweeted about this and I just
had to
share it with all of you:
Weighs 70 tons! No takers for this giant map:
