<div id="ygrps-yiv-1366481824">well then the poor victim woman you have in your office should <br/>
consult with your original questioner<br/>
who could lead her to the stone he saw & make her whole again<br/>
<br/>
but as for your own insistence on their invisibility<br/>
i should probably repeat also<br/>
the many roadstones are low to the ground & 99 years old<br/>
so a few may have become dilapidated or decapitated or <br/>
covered over in the interim<br/>
but you might want to check <br/>
32 statutes at large 961 <br/>
dated 3 march 1903<br/>
which ought to give the full list of their locations<br/>
for your future trypointing delectation <br/>

&gt; I have a woman in my office who, a month ago, got into a car<br/>
&gt; &quot;accident&quot; (was forced off the road) at the border near the spot<br/>
&gt; mentioned by the author of the comment I posted - she went to <br/>
the D C.<br/>
&gt; police department, and they had to show here a map of the <br/>
expressway<br/>
&gt; interchange at that spot.  When she said &quot;I just got onto to <br/>
ramp&quot;,<br/>
&gt; the policeman said, &quot;On the ramp?  You were already in <br/>
Maryland at<br/>
&gt; that point&quot;.  She had to go to MD to file her accident report, and <br/>
got<br/>
&gt; into difficulty there, because there was no marking on the <br/>
ramp, and<br/>
&gt; they refused to believe here when she said where on the ramp <br/>
she<br/>
&gt; &quot;thought&quot; she was at the time.  <br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; Most D.C. border markers aren&#39;t visible from any roads around <br/>
here.<br/>

&gt; &gt; len i think the only thing that might be problematic here is the <br/>
&gt; &gt; ignorance & pretentiousness of the writer<br/>
&gt; &gt; & ultimately his confusion of boundary markers with road <br/>
signs<br/>
&gt; &gt; <br/>
&gt; &gt; for to begin with<br/>
&gt; &gt; there are in fact at least a couple dozen milestones several <br/>
feet <br/>
