All fixed. I do kind of enjoy tinkering with the actual map a little when I'm traveling around. I don't really worry about business names that changed. I feel like that should really be a seperate database/wiki mapped to addresses, than part of OpenStreetmap directly, but :shrug: that's how they do it. I suspect you could spend a lot of time trying to keep up with business's coming and going. -J
