Cleaned up Google Maps

All maps are now snapshots of one master map. You can now navigate the website by zooming, dragging, and clicking on the maps.

Then I went nuts, and added a ton of markers for things that look promising on Google Earth. Now it's a bigger mess than it ever was.

I also figured out how to draw the county borders on the maps.

The Google Maps API leaves much to be desired. In fact, the whole thing reeks of typical Google arrogance and stupidity. After messing around with it a while, finding out what doesn't work and what you can do, I eventually cobbled together a decent interface. Google needs to fire a lot of PhDs and hire some people with brains.
