Aha... I found this comment in my "fun with maps" work:
# Puerto Rico has a "." for Median Age: Male (UEK002).
# UMN folks say this signifies 'supressed'
# though they're surprised it's there too.

Subject: trouble parsing household income from geo data
I'm trying to look at Median household income in
'acs_20135a/zcta_860/ge.00_file.dat.gz'. Variable B19013 has...
data_type n
start_column 16038
width 9
but when I look at that part of the line 91 of ge.00_file.dat, I get:
' .'
that is: 8 spaces and a period.
Is that syntax documented?
How does the MU code handle this case? I suppose the answer is somewhere in
populate_acs_20135a_tables.ktr<https://github.com/mcneeleyta/i2b2/blob/ACS_Census/Kettle/populate_acs_20135a_tables.ktr>
, but I don't have kettle installed on the machine where I'm working just now,
so I don't know how to read that .ktr file.
