This difficult ATCZDE is based on personal visit and location in a clearing.

Emne: [BoundaryPoint] atczde if not also atchde but dont forget atczsk in between

it was easy to decide atczde comes before atchde
alphabetically as soon as i realized that that is in
fact the order observed by the magically mysterious
borderbase itinerary

moreover this reverse logic & method are buttressed by
the madness we have already been practicing from the
very start of the tour
in our special preference & promotion of afghanistan
as in af
ahead of andorra as in ad
& our quiet demotion of the united arab emirates as in
ae
not merely until after afghanistan but even beyond
ukraine
not to mention the totally unwarranted favoritism
extended toward algeria as in dz
thanx only to the spelling of its english nickname
etc
etc

yikes

but happily we can do whatever we like
& are doing just that
here in oesterreich
as in at

which is why we have wound up at atczde next rather
than atchde

both of which btw
tho scarcely pronounceable as well as semantically
vacuous
to the best of my knowledge
must at least rhyme equally well with cratchity

& all this on a rather overcast day for a satpic on
the one hand
& at an impossibly wet place to even try to find on
the other

but for starters if not also enders
check out the first of the attached tripoint
stretching diagrams

the best available czech zoomable map
http://geoportal. cenia.cz/ mapmaker/ cenia/map/ ?wiz_id=21& wiz_special_ param=&rect= -920000:- 1260000:- 420000:-910000? =cz&PHPSESSID= &win_size= 2
places atczde smack on a ridge saddle
& i was able to grope this point down with my mouse at
google
hence the location of the little red tripoint
stretching square in the midst of otherwise completely
opaque woods

& as for atchde
the hypothetical equidistance tripoint in the middle
of lake constance
well i suppose we could measure & compute it from
scratch
but you may recall we do already have a reasonably
good fix on it
that was picked up from a tactical pilotage chart by
grant hutchison
so we could well be content to just plot that beside
the google version for now
in view of the fact that it will undoubtedly fall in
the middle of nowhere anyway
& like why fuss any more than minimally necessary in
this especially imponderable case

so
converting grants values to degminsec
i get
n lat 47d32m21s31 & e long 9d33m35s40
& have expressed that preliminary guess on the second
attachment
just as a possible alternative to jespers & googles
guesses
& in the hopes that someone might find a way to
improve on us all

so thats that
or really thats them

& so next will come lucky atczsk
between atczde & atchde
alphabetically
but also doubling back to some extent

& then we will again be completely where we are
