*sigh* I shouldn't try to write e-mails when so tired. :-) That came
out really poorly worded. Let me rephrase:
"It seems to me that to be able to use a map quickly and effortlessly

would require being able* to find a given state quickly, and then to
quickly find the desired city within that state.
