wow.  this seems like a huuuge undertaking.

given how many roads will need reviewing, what's the absolute
most efficient way to do so?  say, for instance, that you live
in an area and know from experience that the tiger data is correct?
is there a super-quick way of removing the "reviewed" tag from
a bunch of roads at once?  (i assume removal is the goal, as opposed
to editing it to "yes"?)
