I wish the NYT had told us its definition of "Catholic."  [Hey, did you hear
that the Pope died?]

Note that the IAJ took up this issue last week, suggesting that sometimes
IoP (Ink-on-Paper) versions are a superior tool compared to multimedia
presentations.  See www.analyticjournalism.com entry for "Sometimes I-o-P
(Ink-on-Paper) IS better"
http://analyticjournalism.myblogsite.com/blog/_archives/2005/4/6/558822.html

The IAJ link above takes you to the NYT's cartograms, a concept which also
might be tied to agent modeling, making the cnx between theory and
take-it-to-the-street reality.

The National Atlas of the United States has hundreds of maps like that.
They are in color and are beautiful.  The library at the Bell Labs location
that I worked at (in 1979) had a copy and I used to enjoy looking at it.

Yes, out of print and used copies are not cheap: $700-1275.
