I love the ingenuity the girls used to get around the "you need a permit".

They are now doing a "donations only". Which is legal.

Does anyone have suggestions for a good batch geocoding program?

In the past I used GPS Visualizer, but sometimes it truncates the information that is input. I have found a program by TAMU, but they charge after 2500 data points. Thank you in advance for your information.

Got an email today about them doubling my download speed and all I had to do was reboot the modem, router and computer.

I live in east coast CAN. Lousy ,long winter, looking forward to vacation, just about done the east USA, where to???, popup trailer(tent trailer) behind, open to suggestions. TA,TA (English Thank you) for all replays.

My GPS will not recognize and read the POI files. I have done this a 100 or more times. I use POI loader and an SD 2gb. It writes the file fine and shows correctly using explorer.

In danger of losing your windmill?

Maybe you can share the last place your GPS took you and if you encountered any problems, or if you used it to seek out special places to go (like Thai Food, ice cream shoppes, etc.).

Anything to keep your windmill alive.
