I'll find a place for it. I've been head-down playing sys-admin and
politician on campus. Off to SC07 for next week, so keeping up w/
e-mail may be a little trickier (I have 5 hrs of parsed logs to read
each morning...) but I'll try to keep up.

If list members have old-format GNIS files that are

moved. Please do this, because this is the only way
that other xastir users
will have access to usable GNIS data. The new stuff
from USGS is useless for
our purposes.
I just uploaded a single file that contains every
state and US territory. I'm not exactly sure how
complete it is but it has over 180,000 cities and
towns listed. A quick scan showed populations as low
as 60 in some cases.
Don't know Gerry's email address off hand to notify
him, but it's in the incoming directory as
0pop_places.gnis and the file can be exploded by state
using some basic shell scripting. If anyone wants me
to explode it, I'll be happy to do so, I just figured
I'd dump the whole file there first as a backup.
