Hello Brian,
interesting theory - but: I certainly belong to both
categories of yours, and I know several other people
who are mad about borders having both feet planted
in both categories...

[BoundaryPoint] Re: Border tv series... cross your fingers! people" and it shows in the type of boundary points they are interested in. The first and possibly largest group, judging by our e-mail discussions, is interested in the geopolitical aspects of boundaries. This group likes to visit places where boundaries bisect towns, etc. The other group, to which I belong, is primarily interested in boundary "points" (quad-points, tri-points, and other prominent boundary corners) as arbitrary travel destinations. I like being able to see the weather map on TV and see the boundary junctions and know I have been at those locations. I like the logistics of getting to these points and, best of all, they rarely have any conventional travel value - sort of the antithesis of Disney World. So you might consider two styles - a geopolical one and an offbeat adventure/travel one. BJB --- In BoundaryPoint@y..., "Doug Murray" <dmurray@s...> wrote: > Theaudience is multi-national.
