Hello, GoogleBase returns an error due to the spelling of a city/location. The location is: Sault Sainte Marie (in Michigan). I think GoogleBase is unable to find the location when spelled with "Sainte"
Oddly, other common spellings do not generate the error, like: Sault Saint Marie and Sault Ste Marie. All three spellings occur with about the same frequency in a Google search, and I think "Sault Sainte Marie" is the proper and preferred spelling. Here is an example of the error: http://www.google.com/base/feeds/snippets?max-results=30&bq=mortgages%5Bitem%20type%3A%20jobs%5D%5Blocation(location)%5D&orderby=%5bx%3dlocation%28location%29%3aneg%28min%28dist%28x%2c%40%22Sault%2BSainte%2BMarie%2c%2BMI%22%29%29%29%5d Howerver, simply by changing a single character in the above (i.e., changing "Sainte" to just "Saint"), it works! Here is a working link: http://www.google.com/base/feeds/snippets?max-results=30&bq=mortgages%5Bitem%20type%3A%20jobs%5D%5Blocation(location)%5D&orderby=%5bx%3dlocation%28location%29%3aneg%28min%28dist%28x%2c%40%22Sault%2BSaint%2BMarie%2c%2BMI%22%29%29%29%5d (Hopefully the above links post correctly.) This is seemingly an error on the GoogleBase side...? Shouldn't GoogleBase work with all common city names and spellings?
