extends java.lang.Object
    Class for parsing a bounding box in text format: "n=37.44899,s=37.3323,e=-121.98241,w=-122.06566" 
     Input from:
 http://gws.maps.yahoo.com/findlocation?q=sunnyvale,ca&flags=X

 it's also easy to use the geoplanet bounding box
 <boundingBox>  
 <southWest>  
 <latitude>40.183868</latitude>  
 <longitude>-74.819519</longitude>  
 </southWest>  
 <northEast>

 <longitude>-74.728798</longitude>  
 </northEast>  
 </boundingBox>  
 can be input as:
 s=40.183868,w=-74.819519,n=40.248291,e=-74.728798
