I was just traveling and was reminded of a Tiger problem that still hasn't 
been solved throughout the US-- the county line connectivity issue.  It seems 
like a good problem for remapatron-- it is relatively discrete, but it also 
gives mappers the opportunity to do some additional improvement of Tiger data 
such as name correction and alignment to Bing data.

It might be a little boring to do one at a time, so maybe the selection 
program could find 10 duplicate nodes in highways along a county line as a 
separate problem.

My two cents,
James
