Geocoding turns an address into a location (latitude/longitude).

I'm suprised.  That's not an address so I wouldn't expect it to work
really.  There won't be many cases like that do work.

To find places like businesses or institutions, try the Places API
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/places/
It does gave limitations; a search worldwide for "uplb" is unlikely to
work.

Google's data is Google's data.  Forbidden to save for most purposes,
okay to show to your users with a map.
