[nycphp-talk] Radial Zip Code Search

I'd posted one on this list a couple years ago.

Found it in the archive:
http://lists.nyphp.org/pipermail/talk/2003-November/006445.html

I believe someone followed up and mentioned the actual source of the
function, or at least a very similar one, but I can't seem to find that
post.

Good Luck, and have a great weekend, all.
