I was surfing through the profile options (yes, more avoidance of things I should really be doing). I stumbled across the links of the Monk Map littered all over the place, but the link appears to be broken (Monk Map - I get the ol' 404 Not Found).

A thread search revealed that this was originally done in 2000, with a Google Map update circa 2007. The Google maps look pretty cool - I'm curious why the links in the help haven't been updated to reflect the new Google map with new instruction on how to add oneself (Google Monk Map)?

Obviously this is one of those trite, yet fun things that Monks have used over the years to amuse themselves in between important things like scroll transcriptions and deep meditations on the nature of the universe, so not too important - just curious...
