I wish I could say I was cool enough to have known about this site before the
HP3000-L posting, but I can't.  ;-)

However, the exercise of adding myself to their database did allow me to refine
my precise lat/long by a couple of hundred feet based on locating my house in
the close-up aerial photograph.

My long-ago determined lat/long from the US Census Tiger street maps actually
had me on the wrong side of the street.
