Yesterday (Thursday), at a hotel in San Antonio, Texas, the Mexican and US
commissioners of the 115-year-old International Boundary and Water Commission
and the Canadian and US commissioners of the 96-year-old International Boundary
Commission met together for the first time in history for an unofficial but
"general discussion of common interests." Among things discussed were possible
joint efforts in mapping, resources issues, and how the commissions can learn
from one another in dealing with similar situations.

It's about time!
