Before starting a cross country drive, I started working to homogenize the
various lists of VW friendly spots in the USA.

The map is large, and hard to read:

It's pretty clear, you should choose to break down near Seattle.

The data for the map is here:
http://www.skidweeb.com/2004/index.cgi

The longitude/latitude numbers are not for the exact location of each
"resource", but the center of the town for the Zip Code of the person. There
is also a bunch of "tourist spots" I had in there for my own sight-seeing.

LET ME KNOW IF:

If you would like a data-dump for your own site.

If you're up on math and trig.  I'd like to plot the spots on a better
looking map, with some sort of zoom.  Round planet, flat map, square
coordinates. I'm not too clever.

You have a list of Canadian postal codes, with geographic data.

don't break it.
