Comment(by mikepease):

 Great.  This appears to be handling alphanumeric roads and highways much
 better now.

 One thing I noticed is there's a difference between the normalized address
 from
 normalize_address() and geocode().

 select (addy).*,* from geocode('1940 County Road C W, Roseville, MN
 55113')

 Addy returns as:
 "(1940,,C,,W,,Roseville,MN,55113,t)"
 Doesn't indicate "County Road"

 select normalize_address('1940 County Road C W, Roseville, MN 55113')
 returns a more complete description that includes the county road:
 "(1940,,C,"Co Rd",W,,Roseville,MN,55113,t)"
