How about a  ((java script??))  site on a Vendor/Vanagon page
that allows us to add a numbered PIN to a MAP and then scroll
down the list to see who's name is in that area...
I know (Debi has) big ideas and no web creative talent to produce
such a site...
But you have to admit, it was a kewl thought.
