Jan, thank you for the good thoughts...I'm certainly glad you've found BoundaryPoint!  With your permission, I would like to list your site on BP's links and also mention it on the BoundaryPoint main page.  It's good to meet you,and especially nice to read of your background.

I'm 51 years old, married, the father of three grown children and grandfather of two and live in Florida in the southeast of the U.S.  I've been interested in boundaries and multi-points (on an "amateur" basis all my life.  Reading of your work and others on BP is truly humbling!

For some weeks I have had the great pleasure subscribing to the Boundary
Point list. I was told about it by Mr Rolf Palmberg, who has learned me much
about enclaves and exclaves.
I am also most grateful to Mr Bill Hanrahan's initiative, and all the most
interesting information I have found on this list. For many years enclaves
has been a special interest to me. I hope I may contribute a little bit to
all of you.

About myself: I am a journalist (36 years), married, and father to our 8
years old daughter. We are living in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. My
enclave interest started some 10 years ago when I  discovered the Lithuanian
exclave of Sakalinka in Whiterussia. (Later ('92-'93?) the post-Soviet LT/BY
border demarkation left no LT/BY enclaves.)

On my home page http://www.litauen-nytt.org/jan/enklaver.htm I have started
making a list of the world's enclaves, including maps. (This listing is far
from finished, and will probably - and hopefully - never be that.) So far I
have mostly collected information about the enclaves and exclaves in
republics of the former Soviet Union. My page is based upon Mr Rolf
Palmberg's «Enclave Bible», but is not supposed to be a piece of plagiarism.
My intention is just to contribute a litle bit to Rolf's tremendous work.

Regards,
Jan Krogh
