street addresses aren't so discrete that everyone doesn't handle them slightly differently. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_(geography) And over course if you want to totally overhual the way you do things you can just build your method as a hostile overlay on another system, there's a long and proud tradition of doing so.
Assuming that I live on 1337 Main Street, I should be able to keep that address even if I move to a different part of town, and I should be able to use it for all purposes, including when I give my home address to a cab driver, and it should just work. Why can't we get some reasonable legislation like that enacted? --Johnny
