Phil,

Thanks for that info. But, why wasn't it sent out in a general mailing to the members? Lots of people who work assiduously on the maps can't stand the mailing lists (lots of sleep-inducing argument about obscure details of tagging with no final resolution).

Eeek!  Be very careful with this!  The unconnected, untagged nodes were
left deliberately to facilitate recreation of roads, particularly the case
where a decliner split a TIGER way but did not change its geometry.  I've
been making use of these nodes in South Carolina to reconstruct the roads
there.
