The following text is from README.TXT on the USA Country Disk.


README.TXT on the USA 'GPSS Country Disk' Issue 2 November 1999

Most of the data on this 'disk' was created in 1996, before more detailed USA
mapping was added to www.gpss.co.uk. Even better USA mapping is available
from 3rd party CDROMS, including those from Microsoft - supported by GPSS.
However, this 'USA Country Disk' provides a logical first step of GPSS mapping
added by those in the USA, after testing the 'GPSS Baseline' and before adding
more detailed mapping. Issue 2 November 1999 is similar to Issue 1 1996, but
with gazeteer data removed - since better data is now on www.gpss.co.uk
