FYI, Robert has been a longtime friend of map libraries, is a scholar of
some note in the history of cartography area especially,, and would be a
terrific friend in the White House right about now.

Send in those cards and letters...Alice

ps: this is my personal opinion, not that of NYPL or any other organization
to which my name has been attached...
