I use www.randmcnally.com to see where a place is on a regular road map
that I can zoom in and out on.  In the address field, put coordinates in
the form of nn.nnnn, -nn.nnnn.  In other words, decimal degrees,
latitude, comma,, space, longitude.  For example, for Jennifer and
Jeffrey's Second cache which I just found, I would put in: "38.59705,
-90.5999".  Pretty straight forward once you get used to it. Anyway, I
hope this helps.
