Thanks for sharing, thats AWESOME!

If someone can take a photo of the actual article, then we can store it in
the media archive (or put it on the featured images :)

And a big thanks to Mr. Hintz who talked to the reporter who wrote the
article, awesome.

Im looking at the comments building up.  Great to read what all the
non-mappers say about OSM, having read about it for the 1st time from this
article. :-)

Hopefully, our team here is able to 'politely' correct some 'miss-guided'
statements.  :)

And if anyone is around "Huntington Station Court in Alexandria VA"  a
reader asked for that to be mapped, as apparently it's in correct  :) .. if
its already in OSM, then it can be pointed out.

Cheers,
Sam
