Once you zoom in, the query string changes so that it includes the lat and long.

No need to show it all and expand the node. Anyways, here is some code for conversion, go ahead and optimize away:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use strict;
sub convert {
$_ = shift;
my $a;
my $b;
/^([0-9-]+)\.([0-9]+)$/;
($a,$_) = ($1,("0." . $2)*60);
/^([0-9-]+)\.([0-9]+)$/;
($b,$_) = ($1, ("0." . $2)*60);
s/\..*$//;
return "$a.$b.$_";
}
while(<stdin>){
my $lat;
my $lon;
if(/.*&CT=([0-9.-]+)%3A([0-9.-]+).*/){
my $lat = $1;
my $lon = $2;
print "\n\n<!-- location:latitude=" . convert($lat) . ",longit
+ude=" . convert($lon) . " -->\n";
}
}
Perhaps, this could be included on the site, somehow.
Edited, added last idea.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
