The International House of Pancakes brand is gone, it's now IHOP, just as KFC is now KFC, and not Kentucky Fried Chicken. These are renames by the brands, and not sign abbreviations, just as AT&T is just AT&T and not American Telephone and Telegraph Company. - Serge _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
