OK, I checked on every reference that anyone gave me (and I got a lot of private replies giving many different pointers), the best is at http://www.mapblast.com/mblast/index.mb. This one gave location finding that was easily as good as the best of the others, it's finest detail maps were by far the best of any of them (better, not merely "as good"), and they were the only ones to cover the world (although their site says US, ask for any city you want, anywhere in the world, as a zoom start point, and it seems to work). You can control how fast you zoom (which most other sites wouldn't let you), and the interface was intuitive enough so that I had no problem at all using it, to find any spot in the world. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include C programming, Electronics, 213 Lakeside Dr. Apt.
