[GEMPAK #SRV-366525]: Roads for Mexico

Luis, 

I wanted to mentioned I've tried this with a few different shapefile sources 
for MX highways and am not finding it so easy, so forgive me for the previous 
straightforward response.  I believe it's an issue of projection within the 
shapefile.  I'm still working on it and will update you with what I find.

best,

Michael
