I did not think about PO Boxes. You are right. Take La Mesa, CA. There are four zip codes: 91941, 91942, 91943, and 91944. The last two are for PO Boxes. That zip+4 would indiate a specific PO box, and you could map to three-dimensional space coordinates.

There are very rural areas where addresses are actually directions on how to get there. Not in this country, though. It was one of them more third-worldy ones (you know - I heard the report on NPR one afternoon...) -john -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
