Nate,

	Yep, aprs.rutgers.edu.  Its down more than up.   AFAIK, the brothers
Sproul haven't done a new set since then.  I use the TIGER shapefiles
when I need the street detail.  Mostly I use the DRGs.

	I'm really looking forward to the GDAL/OGR integration.  That way we
can use the raw TIGER files and the DLG data.
