jesper
nice to see y&our pages turn up on the int boundaries list


prospects of extracting additional tripoint data from regional bibles
as was recently done rather easily for all 59 african tripoints
diminished sharply today when our best hope
map of mainland asia by treaty by jrv prescott
not a map but a book
proved to be less forthcoming than expected with the desired data
being quite different from brownlie in format & treatment

therefore it is beginning to look very much as if brownlie was a uniquely
lucky situation for us
& not likely to be repeated
& that for info on the remaining 102 tripoints on continents other than
africa we will be thrown back upon what can be gleaned from gideon almost
exclusively

still i am wading thru 500 pages of treaty text like a pig in shit
& will report back out from time to time
