Re: Where to purchase maps

[Earl Sande <sandes@CODETEL.NET.DO>]

Not roll down maps, but a great source for large maps is your own
U.S.Geological Survey and other national surveys (Canada's got a good one).
 Weather maps?  Try your local weather station  at the airport.

Alternative to the roll down - use overhead transparencies.
