using the term "GPS Converter" from Steve's email, I did more google
searching. I knbow Steve said he uses an ap on his phone but I figured
there should be something for the laptop too. I think I came up with a
conversion site better than the one I mentioned previously. Take a look at
http://www.gpscoordinates.eu/convert-gps-coordinates.php
This site might be better and faster because the user can cut and paste
both lat and lon into one of the awaiting boxes and click for converstion,
whereas the one that I was using required doing one (either lat or lon) at
a time. I'm thinking that I like this site one better LOL
