For those that may be wondering the maps can be found at:
http://www.lugnet.com/map/
There are also many links to these maps from the LUGNET home page as well as in
the lugnet.org.* and lugnet.loc.* hierarchies.
Finally I just wanted to remind people that when you get to a level with 2 maps
(1 for LUG's and 1 for LTC's) these maps are thumbnails to the full readable
versions of the maps so please click on them to see the highest level of
detail.
Thanks and sorry for any confusion.
