    The GP said worse: "the 1900s."

    Mudslinging without the slightest trace of proof.

    "A Progressive Web App (PWA) for discovering and exploring U.S. National Parks."

    So, advertising your side project? Because it is useless for checking out Scottish Highlands trails.

    So, you expected a map that omits all adjoining land to the mountains?

    Most people wouldn't object to an article about Kilimanjaro containing a map of where it is in Tanzania, but for reference, here is a map of just the mountain: O.

    One of the WEIRDEST features of Word is that it (silently) retains keycombos that refer to a menu structure that was replaced many versions ago... simply to avoid irritating customers with trained reflexes.
