You are running away with my example unreasonably. It's just a question of whether to raise an eyebrow. The supplemental question, as you have ably demonstrated with your Texas comment, is whether the information is worth anything at all. I maintain that when it is available and relevant, prec

So what you're saying is - if you owned a pizzeria in Port Richmond, but someone called you from a cellphone indicating NYC (or out of state for that matter), you wouldn't deliver? (of course you would, you'd just be more cautious about it the first time they call) While I understand your logic, a

Well, Queens (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queens) is what it's commonly called and it's the county. The USPS will usually use town names (i.e. Flushing, NY) for towns within Queens, so will people that live there. When I make a phone call to Queens I will see on my bill the same towns the USPS use

I can't help you with LERG DB lookups. But I'm a New Yorker. I can tell you that the only literal *city* here is "New York, NY", though sometimes called "New York City, NY". It's composed of 5 boros (how we spell "boroughs"), which are municipal subdivisions that are also state counties. In

www.localcallingguide.com is great, but you can't internalise the database, just use it on a per-incident basis really. Unless you want to work out some sort of deal with them to batch queries to their XML query interface as part of an OSS system I suppose. On Thu, 31 Jan 2008, Peter Beckman w
