I use it every time I find a new location in my files. Just the other day I
had a location in Germany and entered what I had then clicked on the geo
and ta-da got the correct wording. When I first imported "ALL" of the
locations into my files, I decided that I was going to do it however geo
data base did it thus where I live is now Sacramento, Sacramento,
California, USA, I had it Sacramento, Sacramento, CA
but with the way that geo lists it I know instantly if I have checked it
against the geo location list or not because there is an USA at the end .So,
I guess I use it to make sure that I have the right county and the right
spelling for the location I WOULD NOT BE WITHOUT IT
