shows at lower left what appears to be a fantastic new <br/>
singularity<br/>
<br/>
a quintipoint incorporating 2 border crosses<br/>
<br/>
one border cross of broomfield county & one of jefferson county<br/>
along with an additional single corner of boulder county<br/>
producing all in all the alleged usco3bobrbrjeje<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
however <br/>
an extremely close look at this supposed quinticonjunction using<br/>

reveals it is probably only a near miss & not a true hit<br/>
since the newly emergent broomfield county <br/>
in following the old corporate boundaries depicted on the topo<br/>
shows every sign of actually disconnecting from itself here<br/>
between a pair of very close but otherwise ordinary tripoints<br/>
probably no more than 40 feet apart <br/>
usco3bobrjee & usco3bobrjew<br/>
<br/>
moreover<br/>
this hairline disconnection & the hairline connections that do <br/>
appear on the first map surrounding the clave of weld county at <br/>
upper right & the clave of boulder county at center<br/>
are evidently owing to the same peculiar cause<br/>
<br/>
for one notices thruout the topos of this area <br/>
& built into many of the corporate limits<br/>
what appears to be a road allowance or right of way <br/>
in the form of a slight offset from many sectional boundaries<br/>
& even some subsectional boundaries<br/>
& which is often compounded into a corridor strip<br/>
<br/>
so of course <br/>
on a smaller scale such corridors show up as hairlines <br/>
or as a nonexistent megapoint<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
but anyway dont think of it as losing a monster point<br/>
so much as gaining a totally virgin clave of broomfield county<br/>
<br/>
not to mention confirming the 2 other claves named above that <br/>
had been hanging til now by these hitherto inexplicable hairlines</div>
