<div id="ygrps-yiv-1701223148">ghost boundaries are too kewl duud<br/>
<br/>
i have been chasing a couple of local ones myself for some years now<br/>
without any so called success<br/>
<br/>
they are the mileposts of the ghost elbow of the 1731 ctny oblong<br/>
& the original 1787 many mileposts<br/>
which are different from the contemporary ones owing to a truncation of the<br/>
line in 1853 & also to changes in the length of the mile itself<br/>
<br/>
either of these lines may contain valuable clues about the true length of<br/>
the colonial & federal mile<br/>
which is one of the great unsolved mysteries of american multipointing<br/>
<br/>
& dont be silly<br/>
or rather do be silly<br/>
<br/>
failure is the better half of success<br/>
in the game of pointedly pointless points<br/>
<br/>
search<br/>
research<br/>
it is all the same<br/>
<br/>
in fact i find it is usually more fun to handicap or dumb myself down<br/>
just to repeat & prolong the pleasure of the chase<br/>

&gt;I went ex-border hunting last weekend. I went quite south in Jutland and<br/>
&gt;tried to find the Danish-German border of before 1920. Checking out<br/>
&gt;resources after comming home told me that I did cross the border unaware of<br/>
&gt;the spot. Taught me a lesson to research before and not after :-)<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;Initially I wanted to go to Rudbøl, where the border goes in the middle of<br/>
&gt;the street, but it was too far.<br/>
