The revenge of busy fingers who were flailing along playing hookey from
work, and whacking the zero too often, Dan <G>.
450 meters sound better than 4500??
One thing those mountains don't have much of is Hang Gliders. With a forest
of trees over 100 feet tall (30 meters!) it's not too friendly when it's
time to come down.
Now those coastal cliffs... they're something else for the parasailers and
hang gliders...

Oh how I wish you could measure my mountain that way. Lookout Mountain (NW
Georgia) is also 1,500 feet high. When I'm not on the radio I often Hang
Glide from home. If you could use some of that "West Coast Math" to make my
mountain 4,500 M high, I'd (and all my pilot buddies) would salute you for
ever! We'd even buy the beer (or Scotch or whatever you want!).
What's the magic?
