Erik, I'll correct the two you mention shortly 
and those will be uploaded for the New Year as 
well.

Thomas, send me the corrections and I'll make those in time for 1 January.

We're very excited about the possibilities with 
Google Earth.  I hadn't heard about the Mac Beta, 
where can I get more info (I didn't see it on the 
GE site)?  As soon as we see a Mac version we'd 
love to have the GE files hosted on the WWP site 
and created automatically with each event.  And 
any advice or assistance that you have at that 
time will be greatly appreciated.

My neighbor who didn't know about the WWP found out about it on Google Earth!
