Are these addreses supposed to be near the start or end of a long rural
road? MapInfo's algorithm moves addresses near a road intersection back up
the road about 10% of the length of the segment. This keeps the locations
from "bunching up" on intersections in the cities, but it's not helpful in 
the country. I think there's a preference setting for this somewhere.
