MSL moving target again..

See the exchange at http://illinoisgasprices.com/Forum_MSG.aspx?category=1195&topic=193023 for 7/2/2007. I wouldn't want Jman83's position for the world. It's a very tough job and clearly requires a lot of his time and energy. Thanks for doing what you do, Jman83.

While there is a good guideline published by TB, there is considerable confusion, at least on my part, about the Master Station List (MSL). I innocently figured that the MSL represented the way that GB management wanted the stations identified. I was making a bad assumption.

I've edited my Favorites, http://www.myramp.us/GB/ ...again. to reflect Aaaa St. & Bbbb St. without street numbers except for a very few instances where there is no cross street or "T" street. I'm still unsure about those, but am sure it will get resolved. There may be a few tweaks, but I hope I'm close to something acceptable.

Now, back to the MSL, what good is it if it's wrong? I assume (assuming again) that the idea is that eventually the MSL will be the defining document as to station locations and folks will no longer be allowed to "free-hand" the station locations, but will pick them from the MSL so as to avoid the dupes. Since I an older guy I'm doubting that I will see it in my lifetime. It's a formitable task, especially if one has to rely on volunteers to do it. It seems to me that someone has to be designated as the "Keeper of the holy MSL" and not allow random editing. No, let me be very clear that I'm not volunteering. I have a life.

About dupes, I wonder how sophisticated the dupe checking software is? Any chance of improvements there?

Anyway, these are just my own observations about this. My opinions are worth what you paid for them.

Everyone have a nice week.
