Yes the sethwadleyford.com domain is working now because I had to take
out the number of the street address they are located at. I've been
able to confirm this is the problem with a couple of other website
that this is all of a sudden happening to. I'm not sure I understand
the logic behind this. I mean why does Google have to mess with it if
it works already.

So from what you are saying is I have to place the geo-codes in now
instead of the street address we want to send the person to?

Google should address this. We have half our sites up and running just
fine (and this is the way we've always had our integrated google maps)
and the other half seem to be down. Based on updating a few of the
sites that are down with the removal of the address I'd say this is a
hickup on Google's side. It is unfortunate that the data would pull
inconsistently  in this manner. I can image I'm not the only one
having the frustration at the moment.
