FYI - Got this from another list - since this link is on many sites, thought I would pass so you all know the skinny... R/S MAK +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Hello All, Last night and today I tried to access the http://www.usgs.gov/gnis/pub site and was unable to do so. I then sent an email to USGS.GOV asking for help and received the following reply: June 25, 2002 Charles Ostheimer, Thank you for contacting the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) regarding the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). The website has been taken offline to address some security issues. We hope that the website will be back online soon, and we apologize for any inconveniences. ===== =========================== MAK = "Mar sea ah Ann Keel" Marcia Ann Kuehl =========================== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
