Have any of you had a chance to play around with the Geographic
Identification Code Scheme CD-ROM?
 
I have, upon closely inspecting it, discovered some interesting facts about
the city I choose to call home (Baltimore MD).
 
> It is around 97,000 Square Miles in area!
> It has approximately 1.7 inhabitants per square mile!
 
It loks like a very basic error occurred (i.e. there was a "comma" where
there should have been a "period.")
 
I checked multiple jurisdictions, and the result was the same everywhere...
 
Sorry if this has already been posted - it was a source of great amusement
to the reference staff during a boring interim period.
