We consider some results of attempts to trace the pattern of galactic spiral structure in HII regions, HI, and CO. There is really no adequate method available for solving this problem, a fact reflected in the lack of consensus regarding the “correct” spiral pattern. The newly-begun process of deriving galactic structure in CO seems to be recapitulating the history laid down by HI observers.
