----------------------------Original message---------------------------- I took a look at the boundary disputes site mentioned earlier today. If you have political geographers at your institutions, you might want to call the site to their attention. The information there is definitely more contemporary than the Pig War and more likely interesting to the students. vh -- \ / Virginia R.
