  Thanks for posting it.   I don't see where it expands directionals; I 
don't see the same thing Dale saw:
  "5141 instances of E changed to East" for example.

   If it doesn't expand directionals, I believe that it should where the 
TIGER hint is available "tiger:name_direction_prefix".   Otherwise we'll 
still end up with endless nagging over

    Warning - abbreviation in 'E Pond Scum Street'

   when uploading.
