No need to bump it. Those who have read it...have read it. Those who haven't will still have it marked as unread and the next one to respond will send it back up to the top for the rest of us.

The Mississippi map didn't come up; looks like it's an image tag problem and not a problem with the URL itself.

2 additional geography resources that someone may, at one time or another this season, find useful are http://maps.google.com/ , particularly the "Satellite" feature in the upper right-hand corner, which allows the user to move the map orientation to, in essence, "flyover" any area in North America, Central America, and the Caribbean (although the "marked" version map areas are limited to the U.S. and Canada). A nice way to get familiar with a region beyond conventional maps.

Another good resource is Zenith Aircraft's "Virtual GPS", at http://www.zenithair.com/misc/distance.html , which allows the user to measure the direct "as the crow flies" distance between 2 points anywhere in the world, using either lat/lon coordinates or city (even many small towns!) names. Very handy when you want to estimate EXACTLY how far the storm is from you.8-)
