I'm trying to show a visitor to a page the 10 closest places to them by default. I've got most of it, but I can't figure out how I can use an Alias in my presentation.

I've got a Pod called 'places'. I've geocoded the addresses in 'places', and stored the coordinates in columns 'lat' and 'long'. I'm also doing a GeoIP lookup on my users, and storing their location in $usr_lat and $usr_long. (I promise to share how I'm doing all this when I get the bugs worked out).

Here's my code:

$Record = new Pod('places');
$params = array(
   'select' => "t.*, ( 3959 * acos( cos( radians($lat) ) * cos( radians( t.lat ) ) 
                    * cos( radians( t.long ) - radians($long) ) + sin( radians($lat) ) 
                    * sin( radians( t.lat ) ) ) ) AS DISTANCE",
   'orderby' => "DISTANCE ASC",
   'limit'=>25,
   'where'=>'t.publish AND t.lat IS NOT NULL'
);
$Record->findRecords($params);
while ($Record->fetchRecord()){
   echo $Record->get_field('name') . " is " . $Record->get_field('DISTANCE'); . " miles away\n";
}

This doesn't work. How can I get access to DISTANCE? Thanks.
