If you have downloaded GPSS, are running it with success 'on the road'
in a sound-capable Notebook PC connected to a GPS receiver, but are
outside the area of the maps already available for downloading, then
you may request Robin Lovelock to put a map onto the site for you and
others in your area. Please understand that not everyone can be pleased
and that priority will be given to those outside the USA and UK.
Please do not contact Robin to request extra maps until after you have downloaded and run (on the road) the software and data already there.
Please state in your email message what GPS said when it first received
GPS data in your location. Please include your Latitude and Longitude.

to interact with the driver as follows:
driver : "Where are we ?"

driver : "Gas Station ?"
