Ooops, there are dutch people in Zandvoort? You have a hard
time finding them between all the german tourists... ;-)

But we're drifting OT here.

Drifting off-topic? Hell, that's mildly said :)
It's weird: people complain about OT posting, yet still all the real
monster threads are completely off-topic (and I have been an accomplice to
this). I think this one beats even the "arrogant e-mail" thread. Anybody
interested in counting?

I have it at 154 with this post. The arrogant thread I think ran around
130 maybe more so this is probably a record or will be by the time it
dies down.

In threads which are clearly off topic anyway ("Where are you" is not really
related to the product) this doesn't matter a lot. In important threads, the
signal to noise ratio should be as low as possible. Being off topic there
can be a nuisance.

So being off topic is not always bad. If people are not interested in this
thread, they can just as well ignore it.

Don't forget: everyone likes to chitchat every now and then. That's
perfectly human.

My 2c.

Yep, I was just d/l'ing the entire thread this evening. I have a
question relevant to this too. Any idea about it being accessible via a
web page link? I was going to just toss it into my webspace but couldn't
help but noticed the 157 or so messages stating "Copyright" in the
headers. I have the headerless version in a text file now. Wonder who
I'd email to find out? Any clue, anyone?

Just for the record, I'm Stephen Lenehan and live in a village

England.  I've been POVing for about a year now.

Since it obviously isn't, how about a URL to "the world of povray

Please go there and submit your location if you would, all POV-Ray

Are you going to produce a table for us at some point, showing
the stats.

I added my coordinates yesterday.  Nice globes.

If by stats you mean numbers by country, possibly so. I'm only listing
names (no other info whatsoever) to preclude there being any acquisition
of relevent data by unscrupulous people who might find it and use it for
evil purposes  ;}
I would see no harm in showing the list of places "un"connected with
persons names either.

And thankyou, both times. I do need to find out where I got that image
map so I can be sure of it's useability and link to the place I got it.
It might change before I figure where I got it from though at this rate.
