Please avoid being gratuitously offensive by describing something that lots
of volunteers have put countless hours into as "braindead".
No offense meant; it just seemed an apt term for a search algorithm that
favors matches 15,000 km away from one right in the area of obvious

Sorry, I'm with Maarten on this: it's a programming error.
I've tried searching on plenty of common stores and businesses
Am I missing something, or is there no way to sort Nominatim searches on
the main OpenStreetMap map page?
For example, if my map is showing an area of the United States where I

OWL on zark will be coming online after the license change...
...it's likely there will be some pretty significant re-loading to do

I'd like to propose a couple additional icons to use in the Mapnik renderer
with power=tower nodes. The current Mapnik icon (a 7x7 square, crossed
