 In tx_edges, the street name is '''S Belt Line Rd'''. I can't geocode if
 my data instead has '''S. Beltline'''.

 This works:

 {{{
 SELECT ST_AsEWKT(geomout) FROM geocode_intersection('S. Belt Line',
 'Dividend', 'TX', 'Coppell') ORDER BY rating ASC LIMIT 1;
 }}}

 This gives no results:

 {{{
 SELECT ST_AsEWKT(geomout) FROM geocode_intersection('S. Beltline',
 'Dividend', 'TX', 'Coppell') ORDER BY rating ASC LIMIT 1;
 }}}
