<div id="ygrps-yiv-475656142">how about a page or site devoted to tri country points & enclaves etc<br/>
depicted on postage stamps<br/>
<br/>
m<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
& then we could remind & persuade the national govts of the importance of<br/>
these forgotten local shrines & hot spots in their midst like gorillas<br/>
& suggest that they issue special commemorative postal stamps depicting &<br/>
honoring precisely our 161 most focal points & the numerous other geo<br/>
delicacies we could also point them toward<br/>
<br/>
in this way we might grow not only our photo collection<br/>
& perhaps even our global visitation itinerary<br/>
by making sure at least 1 of our members is present as a dignitary at all<br/>
postal issuance or tri issuance celebrations<br/>
which would naturally occur at or near the tripoints themselves<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
i believe the european community may actually have been kick started in<br/>
just such a way in 1957 when a special multinational or supranational<br/>
europa postal union issue was coventured at first by 6 or 7 countries<br/>
& annually repeated with much enlarged scope & membership<br/>
<br/>
the earliest series naturally became quite valuable as collectors items</div>
