thank you very much indeed arif for these several advancements or really
breakthroughs in areas of great interest to us

i am so excited by all this info i dont know where to continue but let me
just mix in a few more questions & comments with yours below for starters

& dont mind if i ask too much but please just continue however you like
&or ask us anything you like

>Ok, about the Jungholz area being a

>and as I have too often seen cartographic inaccuracy

great
that makes sense
lets party over there for sure now


>I am
>not sure of the Bangladeshi border-intersection point,
>even though that one most likely exists and it seems
>like there are two Baarle points.

wonderful
so it really is looking like we will eventually be able to confirm a
worldwide set of at least 3 or 4 border intersections from out of our
recently cited 5 hopefuls

do you think there is any likelihood of still others lurking anywhere

oh no
that is so tantalizing
but no matter
leave them alone & they come home

again i really like your term
& i just found that mexican baby myself last week
but argentina is a pleasant surprise

you probably knew of mauritania

& albania looks possible

but can you imagine the whole book of them

maybe rather thin come to think of it

do you consider federative entities the same as administrative divisions

like i mean would you count canada for the new biprovincial biterritorial
quadripoint

have you caught wind of any quintipoints or other great rarities on that level

would you care to say more about the full scope of your interest here


>I already know about enclaves within enclaves which is
>found in only two areas in the world
>(Belgium-Netherlands and Bangladesh-India). There are
>about 25 of India within India and 3 of Bangladesh
>within Bangladesh (or maybe the other way around.)
>However, one of the Bangladeshi enclave within

>is unique.

that is utterly fantastic

in fact your whole message has made my mind spin

& here too i would be intrigued to learn more about the basis of your
interest &or where you are heading with all these precious data


>Oddly enough, I noticed this enclave area after I

>the next time I visit the country and would like to
>visit if the BDR (the border police) do not arrest me

hahahaha
an arresting & auspicious character i should say
but i know it is no joke to hang out in places like that


anyway come back here soon
