Boy, we're really firing on all cylinders today! The link should be
http://www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/mcd/NGAChartViewer.html. No idea how
it got mangled like that. Sorry.

     This is odd. When you click on the link Michael attached you get a
"page
     not found" error. I also needed to look up a place in Greece this
     morning for some authority record work and found that the GEOnet page
     for foreign names is not available. Connected problem? I'm hoping that
     maybe they are just doing a website upgrade and this is temporary,
     but...

     I just discovered that many of these charts--charts that had been
     available electronically at
     http://www.nauticalcharts.__noaa.gov/mcd/NGAChartViewer.__html--have
     <http://www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/mcd/NGAChartViewer.html--have> been
     recently removed from public access. Judging from the (vague)
"important
     note" at the top of the page, it's a copyright issue.

     Anybody have details? And does anybody have an alternate source?

     Thanks.
