Hi... Some time ago I played around a lot with Conozco Uruguay. It is really excellent and it could be a wonderful program for teaching both history and geography of any area... if someone could put together a "kit" for localizing it. I could see it as especially useful for history and geography of a fairly small region such as a state, provence. or small country. This is a project worth pursuing. It would require loading in a different map specific to the featured region and a set of questions and answers (places... with coordinates) into a basic program. If I had the programming skills I would try it. Alas, I'm stuck back in the age of Basic and Pascal. Caryl
