Those coasts aren't       continuous either.              It occured to me that I was going for a topological version of a coast.       Well, there's probably no topological treatment of coastlines in the       literature, but it's much the way topology treats other things. In this       case, ignore the name of the adjacent body or bodies of water and just       consider the coastline itself.              --       Dan Tilque              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
