That site is a little awkward. You need to register. There's no place to
put a password on the "Join" page. But you need a password.
There's also no place to put the password on the login page.
"Forgot Password?" Yes, identified me, "on the way".
Five minutes later, no email...

I did receive email seven minutes later, including one welcoming me to the
site. It wasn't obvious when I registered that the email had been sent, or
was going to be. I went back to the site to log in, but there's no
place to put the password. I pasted it into an unlabelled box, and
overwrote the "login" with my name. That worked, and it stored it as a
cookie without prompting, apparently.

The interface after that is a little awkward as well. There is an
unchanging scren of advertisements that refreshes as you select a
country/region/city. The prompts and results are off the bottom of my
defualt screen, to be found when I scroll down.

The list has a few near me. I'll check them out.
