  1. I'm a physician in Milwaukee and I will tell you that blasto is primarily an inhailed organism that rarely causes problems. Washing hands, although always a good idea, would not likely offer any protection.

     

    This is a freak incident and I would not change any current routines. It is very unfortunate, but likely those patients were somehow predisposed to this infection.

     

    Get out and enjoy the outdoors!

  2. interesting, i just bought the mapsend directroute and am having the exact same problem. I remember someone saying that we can't directly load to the explorist as it only recognizes serial ports. So, somehow we have to load to the explorist by USB as if it were a hard drive.

     

    Somehow we have to find the map file (of our designated area) and directly load it to the 'region' folder on our GPS, as if it were simply a hard drive with folders. Problem is I don't know where to find the map regions that I created.

  3. So there are no instructions on the DirectRoute NA CD on how to send maps to the 'new' Explorist 210. I can define an area, then try to load to my GPS, but the software does not recognize USB ports so that I can transfer the data.

     

    So I tried to save to PC hard drive, but it only places a small .rgn file on the hard drive, but not the entire map region.

     

    I know there is a simple way to put selected map regions onto my Explorist but am unable to figure it out ;)

     

    Anyone have a link that explains this or want to post how to do this?

     

    thanks so much!!

  4. I would like to place several points of interest in my GPS by typing the coordinates into a magellan GPS program and then transferring to my GPS. Is there an easy way to enter points of interest if I have coordinates from sites such as google earth?

     

    When I choose points of interest on Google Earth (ie. my address) it gives the location in Degree,Min,Sec such as 45*39'08.32" but my explorist seems to want it in xx*yy.zzz' (degrees and minutes only).

     

    How do I convert or is there another way to input?

     

    thanks for the help

  5. I've been camp director for years, and we found books called "choose your own adventure" books that we used for an adventure type course.

     

    We have one adult/director act as the guide and allow the kids to make decisions on where to go or what to do next while following the basic format of one of the books. You have to limit the number of choices in order to have areas set up to do group activities/trust skills, etc. at each "choice". When you pass the 'tests' at each choice you get to move on and continue through the adventure, there are several possible endings based on the choices that you make.

     

    kinda sound complicated to describe, but it is quite easy and the kids love it. you could easily incorporate GPS into this.

  6. My friend and I are 19 years old and just dicovered geocaching thru my Aunt. We found 5 already but we are using Google Earth and printed out maps. We want a cheap GPS that would help us locate these caches. I recently joined the Air Force and im leaving April 11th for Basic Training so we don't have time to save up extra money for a brand new GPS. If anyone has one they would like to sale please let me know. felixwankelsson@cox.net. Thank you very much for your time.

    Good luck in basic training, been there myself. Remember, never volunteer for anything, it'll just get you extra work and headaches!

     

    BTW if you have a palm v or vx or similar, i am selling the magellan gps companion for $40
