-According to [http://www.cnbc.com/id/15837290?q=.DJIA CNBC] todays opening Dow Jones is 12824.94. The string for 2008-05-21 is “2008-05-21-12824.94″ and the md5sum 2df19d4fe7daa520dc8d9fc5d4ed0711. This, by my calculations makes the offsets .179467994697783 and .861480496196977. The Boston location then is [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=42.179467994697783+-71.861480496196977&ie=UTF8&ll=42.346365,-71.486664&spn=0.767324,1.163177&z=10 42.179467994697783, -71.861480496196977]. Can anyone else confirm?
