 </span></blockquote>still it was good of you to redeem that particular tragedy <br/>
<br/>
by just turning it into an amusement & a comedy<br/>
<br/>
& what a playful fellow you are chris<br/>
<br/>
because your idea was almost immediately obvious<br/>
<br/>
& a no brainer to guess<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
yet i still couldnt find the obvious infamous name anywhere with my broken cyrillic<br/>
<br/>
so it also seemed at first like you must have picked out the wrong quad<br/>
<br/>
hahaha<br/>
<br/>
& would take a kidding <br/>
<br/>
there being no corroboration of this answer in my fragmentary cyrillic<br/>
<br/>
til further research showed me you were correct<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
& now if i too may join in the redemption by enlarging a little on your fun invention<br/>
<br/>
& also follow jespers recent lead at byruua<br/>
<br/>
here is another question along similar lines<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
using this great new soviet map site<br/>
<br/>
can you find the 3 other dry tripoints from among the 11 more tricountry points depicted on the maps here<br/>
<br/>
none of which btw have been previously entertained at bp<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
yes thats a dozen fresh tripoints in all<br/>
<br/>
all with loads of clues for our browsing sharpshooters to follow<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
i will tell you that 2 tricountry points that might have been expected in this collection were not found because their maps are missing<br/>
<br/>
& also that the solution will not be so easy to melt down as your sample question was<br/>
<br/>
but i hope it will be just as well appreciated<br/>
<br/>
since i expect all our clavophiles will already be doing a similar but more difficult dance looking for all the claves in this collection<br/>
<br/>
judging from your karki find etc<br/>
<br/>
