I have seen this trick before - it just works on the fact that
200 - 20 = 180
Hey Paul,
Never saw that version but I bet there are a couple of
ways to do it. So now do You remember the Loccar (SP?) Compass
or am I the only one? It was one scarry concept I think it
was developed originaly in the 1940's. In truth, if you think
of all the years people worked with 32 point compass roses
when someone said "lets use all 360 degrees" people must have
had similar feelings. oh well nav trivia...the board game.
Greg
