That's on my to-do list for interactive overlays on my maps.  I've
still got far too many other points to map, though; most of Following
the Equator and A Tramp Abroad.  I haven't made up my mind about Life

today.  Plotting his channels is theoretically possible but would
entail a great deal of work.
