Bah, forget it. I just spent a lot of time and many iterations to settle
on SCALE=3000000 to get a decent view of massachusetts centered at
LAT=42 and LON=-72 .
In any event, this all leads to my next question which is likely to be
more substantial. How do I correlate areas of the map back to an actual
zipcode?
