Thanks Andrew. So it sounds like you just need a technical loophole to 
prevent you actually using the data from a geocoded result, and then you 
are covered.

I have thought of the following approaches:

1) Add or subtract 1.0E-10 from the long or lat so that it is not 
technically the result from the geocode.

2) The ToS tell me that *I* cannot store the content, so in a court of law, 
I could always argue that I am merely offering a public service. I myself 
am not storing the content; the user is using my service to store the 
content.*

* Because, when you think about it, what stops the user from storing the 
lats and longs from a GMaps geocode on someone else public service in the 
form of a document? If the person offering the document service has also 
agreed to the GMaps ToS, then they are incriminated by storing the results 
of a geocode (even though the user provided it). The implications become 
totally ridiculous.

Cheers,

Martin
