Hear hear on the more useful topo books.  Anyone liking the topo books more
than the current index sheet can e-mail Dan Cavanaugh  at USGS
([log in to unmask]) to offer their opinion.  This is something the Map
Trade Association has been suggesting for years, and so far it has fallen on
deaf ears.  "Too costly" is what we have been told.  Not having that
alphabetical listing is a real pain when you are trying to find a quad by
the name only.
