 sorry for the repeat from last night, but if anyone's here and knows where
 I can look for an answer - my TIGER PostGIS setup is returning weird
 results? when I run geocode('1 Main St, Hanover, MA 02239') it returns a
 good result, but when I skip the zip code, it returns a result in Andover,
 which is obviously wrong even though the correct result does exist
 }}}


 One observation is that Hanover is not in the place table, but is in the
 cousub table.
