I've attempted to use the address merge script. However I'm getting an
error message when merging. I'm sure the error is due to the operator not
the script. The script hangs with an TypeError: must be string or read-only

Have you had a chance to look at the data from King County yet? Do they
have more current addresses than Seattle? Seattle was as of 2009. Probably

That looks much better. Now I can trace the Alaska Marine Highway
So what data does this include exactly? Parks? Roads? What?
