<br/>
notes in answer to questions someone raised earlier<br/>
<br/>
easternmost europe appears to lie on crest of north urals at about 66 east<br/>
longitude<br/>
<br/>
center of europe computed by simply averaging geocoords of extremities<br/>
is about 29e longitude & 53 or 54n latitude<br/>
which falls perhaps 100km southeast of minsk<br/>
surprise<br/>
<br/>
however this is probably quite distinct from the true geographic center<br/>
which i havent a clue how to compute</div>
