Might be interesting here in Pittsburgh. It's very hilly here and years ago, when this was a city of factories and working class people who walked to work, they constructed dozens and dozens of sets of stairs up and down the hills. They're all over the place, some of them winding a couple of hundred yards up precipitous slopes. They are all public rights of way, so they're dutifully shown on maps of the city. Which can be a problem if you're driving a car and navigating by map: What looks on the map like a convenient way of driving from point A to point B sometimes turns out to be, not a road, but a flight of stairs. Endlessly entertaining :) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
