Oh no.... what is the point of computers if I am going to hand code them? :-)

In any case, I don't have one or two... I have many, many of them, 10s, perhaps 100s. And, as I said, (ideally) I want to draw the center point of the ellipse, and then have the ellipse show up on mouseover, otherwise the map canvas would get too cluttered.
