I tried OpenLayers.ProxyHost, it got rid of the alert box but I don't get my 
markers showing up, even though I seem to have used the version of GeoRSS 
which the GeoRSS layer reads and interprets.

Looking at the JS code I should get the default marker appearing where my 
annotations are. Anything I'm doing wrong?
