Resources

There are some great resources out there related to globes from a gent named George Glazer that include:

All of it has his copyright and with all rights reserved. He may - or may NOT - be open to letting his text be incorporated into Wikipedia. Given that it is all on the site for his gallery in New York (which sells globes), I could see where he might want to have the traffic go to his site.

In any event, it's definitely good info that should probably at least have a link from here. I'm leaving it on this discussion page in case someone wants to contact the gentleman directly.

foot or feet

"The Mapparium, 30 foot walk-in globe at the Christian Science complex in Boston, intended to be viewed from within."

Shouldn't it be feet?

What?

"The term globe is used as the name of objects termed to be globes." Hard to argue with this. . . .

Vandlaism

Why mention the Globe Theatre?

Why is any mention of Shakespeare in this article?

Help!

Anybody know of any links to a printable paper globe of the earth that isn't set up for techies? I tried a couple of links at the bottom of the article and they read like double Dutch to me - applets and HTML and other mysteries. I want a page I can click 'print the globe' plese, if anyone knows of one! 86.134.30.105 (talk) 18:03, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
