Use Google Earth. Read the lat & long of the cursor from the screen.
Use Google Maps. Move the map until the location is in the centre of the
display. Use right-click or any other menu to copy the URL of the 'link'
link which is a permanent link to that location and zoom factor. Then
examine the URL you just copied and you'll see the lat & long in there.

Unless right-clicking selects the exact spot I'm clicking on rather
than just what's displayed, that's not accurate enough.
Someone suggested mapper.acme.com. That one works perfectly, and
allows me to copy/paste the lat/long.
