Cool! Thanks, Tom.
Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

So there's another issue. It doesn't appear to allow a negative (southern) latitude to be recorded. It does recognize the sign on longitude, but not latitude. It's probably on our end, that our processing of the data is dropping the leading sign, but it could be the API.
Also, for future reference, it appears that Google maps will not let you put a pin in a stretch of open ocean. I'm guessing that it can only put a pin in a spot if there is actual land there.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
What are you setting your location to? I just changed my location to "-33.873651 151.2068896", and it's working fine.

Same as coordinates as you, but it turns out I stupidly didn't zoom in enough, so the pin was hidden directly behind John's. Sorry for the bother. Still doesn't explain why John was having an issue with lat,long, but maybe it was a formatting issue (SE instead of -+?).

I can't get the simple drag and increase options to work, but that may be the fact that I have an ancient (by any standard) iMac. Professional grade, with extra memory, but still, probably not the best internet options. Need to upgrade this year, massively (after the washer and dryer though - sick of laundromats).
