[thelist] Geographic Location from IP Address

[Simon MacDonald]

Works ok for GB - South Yorkshire. 

(This ex-Invernessian finds the thought of Lossie as a spaceport quite
mind-boggling. Can I see myself camping out on the Culbin Sands waiting for
a launch! What are the thoughts of the Findhorn Community[1], I wonder - I
await developments with interest!!!
