Dean,
Again, I must point out that the mention of an aperture that is X
miles wide is not descriptive.
In the Multi program in my 2D and 3D section, I define not only the
longitude and latitude of the
opening, but, the depth of the shell and the eccentricity of the cross
section. I take it that you are
considering the widest portion of the hole. You have to realize that a
hole that is only 2 or 3
hundred miles across at it widest part will over the course of a minimum
of an 800 mile thick
shell be extremely eccentric in its cross section. This language is
ambiguous and it makes me
frown each time I see such terms which are so open to multiple
interpretations. Accuracy is
important because a hole that was 300 miles apart at its narrowest cross
section would be not
possible in my opinion and others might dismiss HE notions that are so
far beyond the scope of
possibility. I, for one, don't believe that the hole is as wide as the
one that Gardner first implied
in his book on the subject.

Leslee/JanJM,
That Artic map was a very simple one. Maybe that's why it jumped out to
me how there is so much area on the other side of the Pole, there is
nothing which clutters up the map. Actually, you can see it on the map
which I use on the Arctic site, at the very bottom:
There is just a lot of space on the other side, a lot of space to hide an
opening in, even one a few hundred miles wide.
