Perhaps I missed it, but we don't seem to have a thread about globes. There was a wonderful story about a globe maker on CBS Sunday morning today -- the maker of the magnificent Churchill globe. I'll be back with the link as soon as they post it.

I love globes. One of my pleasures is looking at globes from different times and guessing from their content the date of manufacture. Looking forward to the link!

>5 lorax: Wow. No, I hadn’t seen that, but it’s a formalized (and more comprehensive) (and more funny) version of my ordinary thought process. It’s fun to do. I think I would turn to the chart only when stumped! Thanks, lorax!
