Tom,

The WV maps are indeed changing.  There are many misnamed roads in 
the old map database.  These are slowly being corrected.  There are 
numerous new roads and businesses along those roads which are not 
included in the old maps.  Portions of WV are prospering.  There are 
several sections of the state with lots of new businesses and new 
developments like housing developments, etc, with roads and road 
names which didn't even exist when the old maps were made.  Believe 
it or not, but my home does not have an address like most list 
members have.  An address such as 123 Main Street (or the like) are 
not used for the road I live beside.  My address is Route x, Box xy, 
Fayetteville, WV - a rural route address.  These are in the process 
of changing and should be in the new maps fairly soon.  IOW, Tom, 
there is a lot of information which should be included in updated 
maps one of these days.

Bob
