-------- Original Message -------- Subject: The center of ___: a new addition Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2004 20:12:31 -0700 From: Jon McConnel <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] ------------------ The Wall Street Journal of Wed., July 14, 2004 has a contribution to the literature of 'where is the center of ___.' The front page column 3 article titled "Journey to the Center of Europe Involves Many a Wrong Turn" is quite entertaining and offers an interesting comparison not only of competing claims to "centerness" but also of the breadth of entities there are to be Center of. Some folk really take this stuff seriously. Jon McConnel UO MAP Library GTF
