<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; about bwnazmzw <br/>
&gt; i have also been thinking that the existence of the kasane kazungula <br/>
&gt; ferry so called across the zambezi per se suggests a bwnazm plus <br/>
&gt; bwzmzw pairing rather than the other way round<br/>
 </span></blockquote>Yes, and that&#39;s attested on the ground by the &quot;Zambian border&quot; sign I<br/>
saw in Botswana.<br/>
<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; about cocrnipa<br/>
&gt; san andres etc on the ground is clearly colombian <br/>
 </span></blockquote>For sure. Colombia has also cemented things a little by negotating EEZ<br/>
border treaties with Costa Rica in the south and Honduras in the<br/>
north, both of which are based on the San Andres archipelago being<br/>
Colombian. This, as you might imagine, has vexed the Nicaraguan<br/>
government not a little. But the shaded area is still there on the<br/>
map, at least, so I like to think of it as oscillating between the two<br/>
double-tripoint potentialities like some quantum event, albeit heavily<br/>
biased in one direction.<br/>

<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt; finally arent there also 2 tridominial territorial quadripoints in <br/>
&gt; the gulf of fonseca<br/>
 </span></blockquote>I&#39;m not sure I follow here. (Well, actually, I&#39;m sure I don&#39;t follow.)<br/>
The tridominium has TRIpoints with El Salvador/Honduras and<br/>
Honduras/Nicaragua along the 3nm limit, doesn&#39;t it? And then a third,<br/>
undefined tripoint at the seaward side, where the tridominium stops at<br/>
the closing line of the bay and runs into Nicaraguan/Salvadorian<br/>
territorial waters. Or have I got it confused?<br/>
