Hi Richard,

You also have a formatting problem on line #96251 of the non antarctic
file near placemark name Whitecourt crater. the KML files are XML files
for Google Earth so they must conform to the base spec so you cannot
have use a < symbol in the file without a corresponding > symbol. Next
time try using the escape sequence &lt; when needing < to get past the
format checker.

Other then that great job.

Mike
