nice map<br/>
& possibly even the best we have yet seen<br/>
in that it indicates such a clear & indeed pointy<br/>
aeom2fumush tripoint<br/>
<br/>
you may recall we have been seeking this tripoint<br/>
since<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/message/8208">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/message/8208</a><br/>
& also<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/message/9497">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/message/9497</a><br/>
& have until now been content to space it out as an<br/>
approximation <br/>
or triarea <br/>
rather than a necessarily exact tripoint<br/>
<br/>
for we had been led not to expect precise borders in<br/>
muslim areas where territorial distribution is by tax<br/>
flow rather than by actual lines in the sand<br/>
<br/>
but now you renew our hopes of finding an actual<br/>
precise tripoint there<br/>
<br/>
so can you or anyone elucidate or focus any of this<br/>
further for us<br/>
