that explains it (no wiz of oz, then, bummer).
So, the hacky solution would be react to that geographical location and
transform it into a "couldn't map".
That means that the poor people of the Coffeyville Country Club in
Coffeyville, Kansas won't be able to tag the field north to their
property in Piggy Bank, but I personally don't see that as such a big
deal :-)
Of course, no offense intended for the fine people of Coffeyville, KA. ;-)
