Interesting. If you say you created them from GPS data, why do they 
have source=AND and an AND_nodes tag? That would be indicative of the 
AND import. But you did not import the AND data in that region by hand?

The fact that the nodes were created on 2007-09-30 and the way was 
created on 2007-09-20 does indicate some editing.
