look what they did to western sahara<br/>
  completely lost it in a sandstorm<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
& heres more truth & power to your ad<br/>
<br/>
maybe we could even repay them for the map by alerting them to such<br/>
improvements as we have been finding<br/>
& also by helping them exploit their neglected tripoint gold<br/>
<br/>
think of all the potential acutourism value we might even get to share with<br/>
them<br/>

not sure whether you were making a boundary or a point about the canal zone<br/>
but it certainly did split panama so neatly in 2 & so oddly backwards as well<br/>
that i couldnt tell her major clave from her minor clave<br/>
  nor which end of the canal nor zone was which for that matter<br/>
as i worked a month in the zone for & with panamanians<br/>
  while living in a panama slum with americans<br/>
when this late american ghost or ex exclave was still a living exclave<br/>
<br/>
i have a feeling too that the zone was actually completely surrounded by<br/>
panamanian lands & waters<br/>
making of it an enclave as well as an exclave<br/>
& making the 2 supposed halves of panama actually reunite just offshore<br/>
  but i cant prove it<br/>
<br/>
the topological question of what territory is actually open ended & what<br/>
territory is actually enclosed or joined here is strangely reminiscent of<br/>
the question of the jungholz x or neck<br/>
<br/>
schematically this may in fact just be the flip side of that coin<br/>
  or perhaps it is the whole toony for that loony</div>
