Someone needs to give Google's labelling guys a lesson in Elementary  
Regexes. I live on Nine Acres Close according to most maps, but 9  
Acres Cl according to Google. Which makes my address 5 9 Acres Cl.  
Very helpful.

Maybe Fake Ed Parsons could address this issue on his blog, once he's  
got down off his segway?
