But when I go with $w, the text in the browser window
changes to http://www.hoursystem.net/latlon.php.  There's no such
thing - I don't do anything with php.  That's like an amalgamation
of what I entered and the argument to my 'get' command. Predictably, I get an error message saying that url wasn't found on the
server.  Can anyone help?  Thank you.

stevemorse.org makes use of cookies. Maybe the site also makes use of certain environment variables. In any case, LWP::Simple is not sufficient for such a site.

Do you have permission to access the feature from a remote script? Does Steve Morse have permission to access e.g. maps.google.com from a remote script?

Google explicitly say at http://www.google.com/accounts/TOS :

"You agree not to access (or attempt to access) any of the Services by any means other than through the interface that is provided by Google, unless you have been specifically allowed to do so in a separate agreement with Google. You specifically agree not to access (or attempt to access) any of the Services through any automated means (including use of scripts or web crawlers) and shall ensure that you comply with the instructions set out in any robots.txt file present on the Services."
