Hi Chip,
Yes please, I think in a nutshell, this is what I'm requesting! Many thanks!

And if it would help anyone, I could create a text file which just listed
each stop and it's text descriptive information as to where it is, but just leave off the latitude and longitude info (for those not having any GPS). I
could do it for all the stops in the city, just those in a particular area
(say within 2 miles of FSU), or just those for a specific route.  Let me
know if this is useful for anyone.

Hi Chip,
What an excellent resource! Ok, so here comes a dumb question...I don't
have
a GPS, not true as I have it on my phone but the user, well, she lacks a
bit
but any how, is it possible to have a txt version of the info that you've
gathered? Many thanks for taking time to organize and share with us!
Happy Labor Day!
Sila
