  Let me re-phrase the question.  I know about asking maps.google.com to
display one point, using lat/long.  In the context of this thread, my
question is... can I upload a file with a series of lat/long points, and
associated values, and have it plotted?

  Barring that, is there a *SIMPLE* linux mapping app (no, not GRASS)
that allows me to plot a bunch of points by lat/long, with associated
values?
