    This seems to have failed to make it out, even to other machines
    at our site so I'm posting a second time.

    Say group, instead of asking microsoft (really the folks who wrote
    MFS are Sublogic back in Illinoise) for more detail in specific areas,
    how about turning on the heat for a MFS map/feature editor.  If we
    had such a tool we could add features to where ever we personally wanted
    to fly.  Myself, I think I would choose to fly over Donaldson's "The
    Land", but you could choose Burroughs' "Barsoom" or even Tolkein's
    "Middle Earth".  The point is, you can add whatever features you want
    if you had the tool to do it with.

    2 cents department:  Yes, Sublogic perverted the Mac interface in the
    implementation of MFS, but if they hadn't, much more screen (read as
    plane window space) would have been lost.  I think it's a great program.
    Good job Sublogic!  Now do the editor!
