Thanks Art. It sounds to me like the only reason someone would do their locations in that 4-part order is because 1), they watched the videos (which ARE really excellent, albeit for this topic apparently) and don't think to do it any other way (and don't recognize the power of sorting right to left) or 2) because they want to use the geo-location database. I haven't used the "geoloco" yet myself, so it's not like I'll feel like I'm missing anything if I turn to this "any space goes" theory.
