title: Linq & unsupported data types (Geography)
body: <p>So, Linq does not support the <code>Geography</code> data type, which throws a major spanner in the works in the lovely 'drag table onto the Linq design surface' developemnt model.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way that I can extend Linq to work with the Geography datatype?
  Or will I need to build a whole new datalayer and set of queries for whenever I need to use Geography columns?</p>
  
  <p>I've been stuck on this for a few days and can't work out if it's possible.</p>
