[meteorite-list] Simple mapping software? (A little OT)

[Mark Crawford]

Doug,

That's very cool.  I must have a play with it when I have a bit of time.

I played with Google Maps earlier by grabbing and then manually adding 
layers in Photoshop for the meteorites; it's a little more work but has 
the kind of look I'm after:

Thanks also for the reminder about Risk - I can't tell how much time I 
wasted playing that game as a student!
