bugger.. knew there was another comment i wanted to make..

although topographical regions are important, we also need to consider
the natural groupings that have already stared to form. no RG is ever
going to have LOS for the entire RG, so it isn't always that important.
Well established groups (like innernorth and the east one that keeps
changing names!) were formed cos people who lived close together wanted
to help each other.

(just noticed a new RG - north east.. w00t..)

and on that note, is anyone in the central area interested in started a
RG? I know of some people, like EAI, CIA, BCG and some others that would
prolly fit into this area (if not strictly geographically, then
definitely with LOS), and who have already been very active.
