Any questions, comments, suggestions, mail me at: maps@evilsoft.org

All maps either are used with permission, created by me, found on some odd ftp server in the
back waters of some other country, or have NOT left their original servers and only have a
link maintained to them. If you have any questions, concerns, or desire to have me remove
one of these graphics, mail me and we will discuss it.
