Great! Never noticed; must be new in the last few days. Now they need =
to use Google for multiple points on the "Map It" option. Which they =

Hey all, for those of us who are still in analog mode and like to =
print
out hard copies of cache pages, I just noticed the map on the pages is =
a
google map that shows EXACTLY where you're going, no need to click and
go to MapQuest. Cool!=20
