- the Yahoo! Location ID is a propreitary number (shared with weather.com)
- the Yahoo! WOEID is only used by Yahoo!, and is a 32-bit number. Unfortunately this number confilcts with US Zipcodes (ie the zipcode=90210 and the WOEID=90210 cannot be destinguished and do not mean the same thing). To solve this, any 5 digit number will be dtected as a ZIPCODE. To have a 5 digit query be detected as a WOEID, prepend it with a 'w' (ie: w90210).
