Now why doesn't that surprise me? I never worked there but knew several folks
who did.

For those wondering about my comment, Erik and I both attended RPI (Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute), and MapInfo is probably one of the best known companies
started by RPI alum (or students? I forget all my history), and especially for
one which is still active and presumably still has lots of ties to RPI (of
course there are more well known and well used products of RPI grads, hmm, lets
see: the Ferris Wheel, the Brooklyn Bridge, Sendmail [or was it SMTP], and many
more...).

Ok, back to your regularly scheduled .castle stuff, this discussion to be
continued (or just plain ignored) over in lugnet.people...

Erik - have you thought about modeling the approach? I should dig out the
pictures I have from before it was rebuilt and build a "before" model. We used
to have our own "Greek ruin"...
