Hell, years ago, I only wanted to add three bits and give a set to each
continent with one leftover for the United Federation of Planets (and
Antarctica really didn't need one anyway)...

I was told that would be geographically discriminating!  :)

Ah well, c'est la vie!    Why be lazy when we can be more complicated?
