[Xastir] GNIS data

[Wes Johnston]

Kinda got it..... it seems the gnis data shows up differently when you
zoom in or out.  Even though his mile scale at hte bottom right said 5
miles like mine did, his map did not show the same gnis data mine did.  
But when he zoomed in one more level, it showed all cities.
