It actually makes me wonder whether a  element geo will ever exist by
itself, unattached from an hCard? Indeed, the same might go for adrs.

My thought there is what is the point of a GEO or ADR if it's not
associated with a name? It might perhaps default to "the location of
the page" (a very hazy concept when you think about it :)) or
"location of the page owner".

Basically, for an unattached GEO or ADR... if a service indexed the
page and grabbed the microformat content, would it be especially
useful on its own?

The problem is, finding use cases for say geo and adr unassociated
with an hCard.

It could be an alternative to using meta-data, eg. <meta name="ICBM"
content="-27.460000,153.020000"> which is picked up by some "blogs by
location" indexes. The question of exactly what it means still stands
though.

cheers,

Ben
