   Isn't there a computer program out that'll map out routes and print
them out for you? I know I saw a TV story about a minvan that drove itself
(I think using GIS data). It travelled one or two thousand miles -
tho it only went 45MPH or so and stuck mainly to Interstate type roads (I
think it had a problem with the way some offramps were designed).
