Comment(by mikepease):

 Oops!  Sorry, Paul!  And thanks, robe (is that Rob?)

 Here's a screen shot of how a bunch of points in the Minneapolis area are
 being placed in the center of the street rather than the the even/odd
 side.  Also, note that the points seem to be shifted northward a bit as
 compared to where Google's geocoder places them.  This is illustrated with
 a green line leading from the google point to the tiger point.  Maybe
 that's a limitation of the tiger shapefiles?
