Default Earth Impact images

I don't know if anyone will find this useful or interesting, but I have available now at http://www.molalla.net/~lisse/craters.zip a Google Earth placemarker file of every confirmed crater and impact event on earth, as listed at the Earth Impact Database maintained at http://www.unb.ca/passc/ImpactDatabase/. All exposed and unexposed impact locations are flagged and indexed. I'm a bit curious as to whether anyone will actually get any use out of this, so, if anyone does download and give it a try, could you give me some feedback on whether it's of any utility? Thanks.

This could help with making locations labels for those craters in the Celestia program. I'll need to find the file format of the list.

Check out 57--the Wetumpka Alabama crater--the art work that is.
