Sensible government policy? When did that happen? My local county wants
$10,680.00 for the political GIS data, and it's got a non-redistributable,
non-commercial license on top of that. Aah - my tax dollars at play.

What I know of it is the tiger ID came from the ID of each unique item in
the tiger DB. A road segment that had an address range was one, the next
