    1. KGS Digital Map Beta Testing and Tornadoes
    2. Bill Utterback
    3. My friends - A note to tell you that beta testing has been virtually completed(I am still awaiting the results from one tester)on the KGS Series VI JP Area Digital Maps beta CD. All of the results so far have been consistently good, including those testers who use a MAC. In all cases but one(a rather obscure program of which I have not seen or heard about), the images could be opened, enlarged, reduced, and otherwise manipulated as the testers saw fit. Unless the final tester has problems, I will be ready to start offering these in a short time. I will, of course, keep the lists posted in this. We have had a much easier time with this testing than we did with the CD on which the Graves County Circuit Court Order Book G page images were held, since we had an index to consider, as well as links to each page in which items in the index appeared. Those were overcome with the invaluable assistance of two of our list subscribers. As most of you are aware, western TN suffered a surge of tornadoes yesterday, with an extremely severe one touching down and doing heavy damage in Dyer Co., TN. Dyer County is just south of Obion County, TN which lies adjacent to Fulton Co., KY. There was loss of life and much property damage from this tornado(the news is saying that as many as 60 funnels were spotted at various times and places in this huge storm). We send our hopes and prayers to the people in that area, and our sympathies to those who may have lost loved ones in this event. -B ====================================================================
