Egypt has roads and electricity where the vast majority of people are, just like in America. Go to the middle of Death Valley, California and you'll find about as much electricity as you'll find in the middle of the Sahara desert. Egypt is roughly the same size as California, but 90% is terrain comparable to Death Valley. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive http://marc.info/?l=jaxlug-list&r=1&w=2 RSS Feed http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.xml Unsubscribe [email protected]
