I'm glad you made it to the mapa-thon [0], Eugene.
Over the weekend, in San Juan, we had another mapa-thon and one of the
things we did different were "Blitz Decks" (a.k.a. lightning talks) during
the break. Many thanks to Rally and Dianne, for their decks about mapping

Hi all,
I'm resurrecting this old thread[0] because we've been discussing Metro
