Bill:
	Thanks for the web site, but remember that at 10 bps it takes
forever to see any website.  Their slow speeds just were not worth waiting
for.  A Navajo could communicate faster with smoldering leaves and a
blanket.
	Did you look at the Nautical Landmark?  I thought you of all people
would have recognized and correctly identified that landmark.  Maybe Burt or
Richard Smith or Lou or even Michael can identify it.  Gee, where are all
the previously identified Rhodies located?
