Ahh, I now understand where I missed your point. You meant that Spain is closer to France than Spain is to Italy, gotcha. Sorry for screwing this up. I missed the meaning of "it". Lou Deeter, Orlando FL

Sheldon, have you looked at a map of Europe lately? I believe that Italy and Spain are precisely the same distance from France. I would agree that Eibar, Spain (where Zeus is located) is probably closer to some territory of France than Vicenza, Italy is from French territory, but I'm guessing that the distance from Paris to Vicenza is less than the distance from Paris to Eibar.

Spain is a lot closer to France than it is to Italy...
