Thanks.  However, there is some mystery with that file.  The Getting
Started (http://liblas.org/start.html) page says to give the command:

   lasinfo --no-check srs.las

and shows the WKT that should be displayed:

   PROJCS["WGS 84 / UTM zone 17N", [....]

However, when i give the lasinfo command on that file, i do not get
WKT displayed, or any other indication that it is UTM North Zone 17.
Perhaps there is more than one version of the srs.las file, including
that one from the repository which has no srs?

c:\Data-LAS>lasinfo --no-check srs.las
