Geez Ron, it's cruel to tease me that way (!)

I certainly would love to see the maps, either photocopies or scanned images
or book-by-loan. Maybe a library has one? Fifty copies of a book, is anyone
willing to sell one? (hehe) Maybe we could talk your publisher into making
more copies. I could force my students to buy them...

I've become a 20K fanatic thanks to you guys...
