[Steppes] boundaries (was: a big long subject line)

[Duncan Hepburn]

I totally see where you are coming from Jaque. After looking at that  
map, I was surprised to see where the boundaries fell.

My guess is that Lindenwood was originally conceived as a way to  
accommodate those who lived along the Steppes/Elfsea border, so they  
wouldn't have to drive 45 minutes either east or west to participate.  
Sounds good in theory, but no one considered the north/south travel  
times... or if they did, it was just the best they could do to  
accommodate those "midcities" folks.

Again, just my guess.

P.S. It was good seeing you at the Christmas party... which I only  
realized after you mentioned it, was south of I-30... hehe.
