&gt; &quot;mini-expeditions&quot; to these various <br/>
&gt; &gt; unique points on the earth.&quot;<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>this was exactly correct when you quoted it<br/>
so it gives us a conveniently dated text for comparison<br/>
because you have just jogged my memory to reinstate a few of <br/>
our founding father bills original words that have been lost since <br/>
around message 619 about 3 years ago when they were <br/>
inexplicably shanghaied to taiwan<br/>
as you can see near the end of this slightly strange page<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://jidanni.org/geo/us_can1994">http://jidanni.org/geo/us_can1994</a><br/>
where the 3 additional words<br/>
those slightly strange <br/>
appear following the 3 dots & just before the familiar words <br/>
individuals who are interested in finding etc etc<br/>
<br/>
& you can now also see the missing words reinstated near the <br/>
top of the bp home page<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
of course this new or rather old wording probably comes as no <br/>
surprise & may even be a welcome sight to our original charter <br/>
members who arrived before the message morphed <br/>
<br/>
but i realize the great majority of our individuals <br/>
most of whom arrived after message 619 <br/>
might have some reaction to being so suddenly characterized or <br/>
mischaracterized in this way<br/>
<br/>
so in fairness to all <br/>
& also in view of the apparent confusion over the meaning of <br/>
especially<br/>
i believe the final wording of this our only known constitution <br/>
should remain an open question & subject to further discussion</div>
