    Nice find, and a good addition to the toolbox.

    It does look like it would work better with maps of contemporary urban centers than with those featuring older ones. The straight lines of the roads are more suitable for a city where planners and road graders have been at work. Really old streets are more likely to follow the terrain than blast right through it.

    depends where you live

    I grew up in the prairies, and pretty much every street WAS straight, in every town I went to. When building on grasslands, the straightest line between two points IS a straight line

    Yup, his relatives use it all the time.
    Bill Stickers is innocent! It isn't Bill's fault that he was hanging out in the wrong place.
