  I've been playing with code that a guy posted on google to learn the map
functions. You can check it out here: kids-eat-free.com. The Sat function
is pretty cool! So far both IE6 (xp) and Firefox works on it.  You can
drag your mouse and move the map as well as click on the pushpins...

	Next to get aprs info on the map!
