Colleagues -

Thanks Gwen, now I feel really old! :-)  May I add that these
coordinates are general, were compiled in the pre-technical age (unknown
to many of you) and I believe were created using the USGS topo indexes
so..... these are general at best -- good enough maybe (?) for 1987 but
I would think (hope?) that USGS would have more precise coordinates
after 20 years.
