The "rough" positioning is a very good idea, thanks. I am pretty sure

We're doing this for our site (http://boston.povo.com) the simple way: have
Lucene return all matches based on non-geo criteria and then fetch the items
from the db by id and run our geo logic. We store some "rough" positioning in
Lucene, such as the region and use that for first level rejectio
