Re: Special Christmas Gift

Mike,

A friend of mine, Bill Cain, has been looking into getting some 1:50,000
maps of the Amazon basin - of course, you only get tiny little portions of
the basin, but if you are going to, what we call 'Conkel-ize' (never mind
:-)) a small part of a river for Apistos, this may come in handy.  I'll let
all of you know if I find something. On a related note, does any one know of
detailed maps of the Amazon on CD?  This would be much better than getting
fifty 1:50,000 scale maps.  I have MS Encarta'97 but once you zoom in for
detail, none of the small rivers (and some big) have names.
