Ok, took longer than I thought to get back to this, but I've tried it 
with the roads layer and still cannot adjust the distance between labels.

here is a screen shot:

I've changed MINDISTANCE from 9 to 900000, and the image stays the 
same... the labels don't move.

If I set the layer.sizeunits to feet, then the font size scales with the 
image as I zoom in and out... I assume the font size is being set to 7 
feet instead of 7 pixels?  (I have label.size = 7).  But still, the 
mindistance seems to make no difference.

Also, some of the labels are being messed up, in the screen shot you can 
see it.  And the road didnt get draw right either.

hum... it occurs to me... I dont know how many different lines were used 
to draw 110th st.  If they used multiple lines, would I get a label for 
each line?  Casper seemed to get one label.
