----------------------------Original message---------------------------- When I read the question about Middletown, Calif., I thought to look it up in my 1995 edition of the Rand McNally Road Atlas, but on second thought I did not do it. Considering the large amount of Americans on this list I thought being number umpteen with this answer. I am surprised on the answers referring to: - their high school team used to play ours - Columbia-Lippincott gazetteer of the world, 1962 - Hammond's World Atlas (Ambassador Edition) - What is the zipcode for Middletown? Now I looked it up in Rand McNally, and indeed, it is in southern Lake County. The index even gives the number of inhabitants, 2000. I hope Darius Bartlett got off list a lot of references to road maps and atlases, otherwise Rand McNally and colleagues have to dismiss their advertising agencies :) Peter +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- Dr Peter van der Krogt FRW-Cartography University of Utrecht Mijerstraat 20 P.O.
