Map of Denmark by A.E. Gelat
Hi, Mette, I could not find a more detailed map on the Internet, but the one below is very neat. It is a CIA map. If the link does not open directly, you can copy it on a WORD document and then open it by holding Ctrl down and clicking the link. http://cjoint.com/?hbd5tjobbn Tony

Strange Cancellation by A.E. Gelat
I recently received an envelope with a non-profit-organization stamp, with a half-inch long sticker pasted on it. Has anyone seen this before, and why has it been applied in this case? The envelope can be seen in alt.binaries. http://cjoint.com/?bdctxjRU3h Tony

SNA Fennecs by A.E. Gelat
PBS (Public Broadcasting Service -- a television station, to those of you outside the USA) had an excellent program on the Sahara, last night, and it had marvelous shots of the fennec. I recommend seeing it if you can find it. I believe it was made by the National Geographic. Tony
