Greg - I don't have strong feelings one way or another, but since this is
spatial data, it's easy to figure out the state and country. City not so
much,  Often it's a postal city code even though the location is in
unincorporated areas. But like you I do sometimes look at the tiger tags on
a way to see which county it's in.

Best,
Clifford

I forgot to mention that these tags where handy when an influx of seo spam
hit my area.  There was no second thought about deleting the spam when
there were Washington, South Carolina, and what not in the seo spam
addresses.

I have a different opinion on this subject. I always add these two tags. We
are an international map. If he has the data already, I don't see why they
shouldn't be added. My view is shaped by living in a border state.
