Doug,

That's very cool. I must have a play with it when I have a bit of time.

I played with Google Maps earlier by grabbing and then manually adding
layers in Photoshop for the meteorites; it's a little more work but has

Thanks also for the reminder about Risk - I can't tell how much time I
wasted playing that game as a student!
