Or perhaps it's just too much UV coming thru our sunny Hawaiian atmosphere?! d:) Check your copy of the Eastern Mediterranean, PREX 3.10/4:M 46/8 (sl. 98-0001, Oct. 15, 1997). Best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year!! Aloha, Ross Togashi University of Hawaii at Manoa Hamilton Library - Map Collection [log in to unmask] mmm...spam tacos
