[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 460287, member: 11315"] I found an interesting fact a few months ago. Map businesses will actually include a fake street name or put in a street that doesn't exist on their maps. They do this on purpose so they can easily catch another company copying their maps and charging people for their copyrighted property. This is totally true and if you take 2 different maps from the same year, you can usually find the copyright "key". PS - This goes for printed maps, not online as far as I know. [/QUOTE]
