<div id="ygrps-yiv-1430849353">this entire apparently spontaneous quiz eruption is actually the <br/>
latest in a series of reverberations dating back to the message <br/>
sequence 648 646 408 404 390<br/>
<br/>
what remains surprising to me in all this is the apparent fact that <br/>
new jersey hasnt made a similar claim on all those portions of <br/>
liberty island such as piers & backfill that must inevitably have <br/>
also expanded upon the original territory of that island as well <br/>
<br/>
i mean relative to its size at the time of the same 1834 njny compact <br/>
that enclaved ellis island<br/>
<br/>
in the 116 years since the statue of liberty was installed there in <br/>
1886 there must also have been some improvements made there in the <br/>
course of the ongoing development of the national monument facilities <br/>
by the nps<br/>
<br/>
that is my presumption but i think it is a safe presumption<br/>
<br/>
& i have to figure that by the same regime of the 1834 compact & 1998 <br/>
supreme court decision regarding ellis island at least some small <br/>
parts of liberty island must therefore also belong to new jersey<br/>
<br/>
but it appears to me that new jersey for some reason just hasnt <br/>
realized this yet or cared to pressed its similarly due claim<br/>

&gt; I was not aware of the enclave story, but I still think it&#39;s funny <br/>
that it&#39;s not in New York proper.<br/>

&gt;   I don&#39;t suppose you&#39;re thinking of the two statues in Paris, <br/>
Jesper?<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt;   There is one in the Jardin du Luxembourg, and another near the <br/>
Pont <br/>
&gt;   de Grenelle (Allée des Cygnes).<br/>
