The elevation service web page (http://code.google.com/apis/maps/
documentation/elevation/) links to this group with the line: "The
Elevation API is a new service; we encourage you to join the Maps API
discussion group to give us feedback." So that is what I did. If this
is not the correct group, apparently Google sent me to the wrong
place. Let me assure you, the URI is not being generated by my code. I
am making a function call into the elevation service API and that is
taking care of generating the URI and the making the RPC. The issue is
clearly in the Google code. The possible solutions as I see them are:

1. Force the user to break up long paths into multiple calls of with a
smaller number of points (and thus properly return an error).

2. Properly handle large number of points internally.
