Hi Matt - no worries...I think I approximated my spot enough that it looks a bit closer to the hospital than it is...(Methodist?) Anyway, I'll definitely take you up on that beer someday - you buy the first one and I'll buy the second. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Looks like a thirsty summer this year. Dave

Thanks Benton, you nailed it, the degree setting was(is) set to degrees, minutes, seconds & 10ths for use with nautical charts. Oh, and thanks for the heads up, but that's why I stopped before I got a direct hit, ya can't be too careful <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />.

Works great with Mozilla at work, not too good with dialup at home. I have 2 place pins, one home and the other work--about 100 miles apart. I guess that I will have to set up for disaster at new place, but I will have more places to bugout to.

LoL - I was just about to say something about that - I saw the purple pin in the upper MidWest this morning and thought "What??? - Oh, it must be Christina's..." (I changed mine to green ASAP - although a [color:"green"]nice dark green[/color] would suit me better)

I'm just happy people find it useful.
One thing I think is remarkable (and this goes along with what Garrett said in another thread), is that the map hasn't been defaced yet. I'm on a couple other forums like this, but would never consider making this available there. I've been watching for mischief, and seen none. And this with no protection in place whatsoever.
Anyone read Spider Robinson? <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Yep, I'm a big Spider Robinson fan.
I just added a marker for my favorite campground, which I'm going to be at in 3 weeks. This is just 2 miles from the "Alpine Lake" fire is burning. I'm excited to have a chance to see this force of nature in action. Of all the places I've been in the BWCA, this area I know the best.

I've added my home town and two of my field work locations - they're a good indication for why I chose "Frozen" for a handle.

Heh. I thought those were mistakes... <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
I'd like to go somewhere up there, just to see the Northern Lights.
