Thanks, but I found my coordinates in an old atlas. I already entered them
on the website. The site you quote will not load just like it is. You must
go there from some entry form, which I don't seem to be able to find on this
server. The main index says something about maritime maps only.

I am prepared! I have a "Fans" mail filter running (basically
auto-reply with a big "Thanks!" and a Swiss bank account open for
donations) and a "Fans" mail folder residing on a separate 9.1 Gb HDD
that gets burned on CD-ROMs and subsequently cleaned every day. The
only problem remains that I only have a single sattelite taking care
of transfer, and the poor loser can't take more that 10 Gbits/sec :(

Hi Bob!
I tried to mail you yesterday but I fear it failed again.
The link to
http://164.214.2.59/gns/bin/validate_query
doesn't work because it trying to reach the form. I get the error
message:
"GNS Error Message
This window cannot be reloaded. You must go back to the previous form
and submit by selecting the button."
If you set the link to
http://164.214.2.59/gns/html
one can access the form.
Thanks!!!
Marc

Use this address: http://164.214.2.59/gns/html/index.html
and press the QueryAccess Button a little down the page.
Took me a while....

That's some bandwidth there. That would put me in the stone age since
I've got a lousey 26K connection average.

Thanks, I just saw about this and have already fixed as of now. I should
have know a submittal page might need the reffering page from
experience, but due to hast I overlooked it.
Thanks for letting me know.

I had also found that out very late yesterday evening. It found even two
Gladbecks. But one of them had exactly the same coords as my atlas. So I
guess this is a good database.

No need to say sorry. I think you provide a very interesting service.
