  1. Which "Great" Person truly deserved it?

  2. Map Thread VI

    Hate to admit I was... not entirely sure how to go about doing that: Or rather, I used them on several occasions to mark rivers, and then I wasn't sure if I wanted to go through the work of getting rid of them. Is it terribly distracting?
