Maptitude - http://research.umbc.edu/~roswell/maptitude.html
Dear all - A little diversion in these trying times isn't bad. And in my
experience, discussions about proper use, netiquette and all end
up creating more messages than the messages in question. A
little tolerance and use of the delete key is appropriate. It's not like
we're getting hundreds of emails like this.
