I've just found another segment, 65453, (crossing West-East
from<BR>Southampton Row, Central London) which again is both a bogus path,
and<BR>also not supported by even the most charitable interpretation of
the<BR>underlying GPS tracks. From the low number, (recent segments are in the
<BR>range 9.2 million) it's one of the very first segments. Can someone
with<BR>access to the database deduce any more about this segment and
who/when<BR>it was created?<BR><BR><BR><BR>-----Original Message-----<BR>From:
