Comment (by robe):

 BTW when I run in pgAdmin3 I get:

 {{{
 SELECT id, ST_AsText(ST_Centroid(geog)) AS geog_cent,
 ST_AsText(ST_Centroid(geog)) As geog_cent2
 FROM geog_cent_poly_prob
 WHERE id IN( 49);
 }}}


 {{{
 49      POINT(-1.51370977193642e-226 0) ; POINT(-1.51370977193642e-226 0)
 }}}


 so I suspect that's where that huge number is coming from when computing
 distance to computed based on MA state plane meters.
