Thankyou, those are very nice links. The satelite shot, except for the clouds, is especially impressive. The map in post 29 shows me just what I want to see. It's probably on a 3-mile square scale, but I can tie that up later. What I really need to know is the name of the river on the left. If its name is not "Mekong," (like the river on the river is called) then the Kerry campaign statement about the Mekong paralleling the border is provably false.

Hey thanks, great map, I could even find where I was south of tam ky.

I read the Kerry folks say that Sa dec is "only" sixty miles from the Cambodian border....looking at the map and knowing a little about the country, I'd say that was a good
four to six hour run, close in miles but not in time, easy to get turned around on those river branches, mines, fish
traps, logs etc.
