The location of statuses are often times a best approximation. You should
probably do some validation/cleanup yourself.

 Hi,

 When my application (www.ookull.com) runs queries of type -

 http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=*rpp=100geocode=17.38%2C78.48%2C925.0km
 to get tweets from India, I very often get tweets from Indonesia
 (Jakarta). Once in a while I also get tweets from Jamaica! I suspect
 that Jakarta and Jamaica are being confused for some Indian cities.
 Plz help.

 Thanks
 Naveen
