<DIV><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3> I do not think that the only
question is (or at least should be) whether "old, inactive feature names should
be retained on this map." I think another question should be whether current
feature names that are not officially accepted names should be included on the
map. Whether they are appropriate and should be included is another issue, but
the inclusion of a not-yet-accepted name can move an inappropriate name along in
the parlance to where it then gets accepted, and this is not necessarily the
best way to do it. I would say that, for an NPS publication, only including
officially accepted place names should be the rule. Let other place names be put
through the correct protocol to either have them accepted (and they can then be
added to future printings), or rejected (in which case they should properly have
been left off). I realize that while pushing a name through the U. S. Board on
Geographic Names is a more difficult protocol than trying to print a name in
enough places so the USBGN will then have a much more difficult time rejecting
it, the former seems to me the better way, and often the better way involves
more work. Just one of the rabble,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>The question with these is whether old, inactive feature names
should be retained on this map. An alternative perhaps is to have two
maps, one cleaner with fewer names, and another with as many feature names as
can fit.<BR> <BR>Carolyn Loren<RTE_TEXT></RTE_TEXT><BR><BR>
