 Hi, Regina.

 I've tried your new version dated 9-01-11.

 I'm attaching a new screenshot that shows the new geocodes are, in fact,
 offset to the even/odd sides of the street.  Great!  This was an important
 fix for my application because we often deal with boundary cases that go
 down a street, so we need to know which side of the street a location is.

 However, there is still an issue with shifting North (or sometimes South)
 as compared to Google's geocoding.  The green line in the image shows the
 relationship to where Google geocodes the points.  Should I make this a
 separate issue so you can close out the even/odd issue?
