Hrm. An interesting idea. It'd be trivial to add this to the
LibDB schema (and, in fact, I've written a few grandiose schemes
for "places" in a CCQ article I never finished - I envisioned
mapping data such that you'd be able to say "find me media
that mentions places within 30 miles of [this one]").

Do you know the exact definitions of the above? Is the Narnia
forest, certainly "natural", fictionally "constructed"?
