What sort of file is a .kmz? What program should I use to open it? :??:
Or is that meant to be a link? Can't open it.

Each locale the file centers in on has a window pops up with some info about it. Each window includes a 'info source', and several of them link to the bio tab here in the Wardrobe, and include the blurb © 1994-2006 John Visser.
Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.

Oh, no, nothing like that, SS. I was just letting John know how the site was crediting him for the info, since he won't be able to look at it himself for a couple of days.

I just noticed that Google has updated much of its imagery around Oxford. Look up Bodleian Library. You can actually see the shadows of the spires.
