--- microformats model Real-World behaviors, so what you THINK is not
what gets model. We need to look into how things are ACTUALLY being
published.

The W3C has an RDF representation of GEO coordinates and even though
there is an ALTITUDE component, it is rarely used! Even google Earth
defaults the ALTITUDE to the land height at a given lat/lon
