Fantastic. Point of interest, I used the first map-- I didn't want to first check the validity of the third one, and the second one looked haunted.

I pray that such works lead to further upgrades to the interfaces to the akashic records.

Nu-uh! I counted the bridges dilligently.

Btw, just read this, thought I would share, on the subject of excessive anthropomorphization:

> This perspective implies that there is no such thing as “anthropomorphizing” because human beings have no unique essential property which can be inappropriately attributed to agents that have none of it. Aside from the very rare trivial cases (misattributing human-level cognition to simpler systems), we must be careful to avoid the pervasive, implicit remnants of a human-centered pre-scientific worldview in which modern, standard humans are assumed to have some sort of irreducible quality that cannot be present in degrees in slightly (or greatly) different physical implementations (from early hominids to cyborgs etc.).
