Update Request: General error
Town name is Jolly, not Valero.
Submitted 1 day ago
Posted near the east edge of Jolly Texas.
City overlay shows correct city.
Color Highlighter and WME Addon segment list fail to show anything named Valero in the area.
I can only conclude his GPS is very sick, or he is very lost or both. :)
Did you look at Gas Station Landmarks near the report? Valero is a brand of Gas Station...

Problem: A grammar correction: The voice should say, "Drive safely." "Drive safe" is incorrect.
Wow, and I thought I was strict about grammar! I feel better now.
There is a thread about this somewhere - and "Drive safe" is actually grammatically correct.

And on top of those last two I also found a report stating that there were no tracks for the railroad, along with a perfect GPS trace on the tracks - which were already mapped by the way... :evil:

Fireworks tonight
Posted July 3rd in the City of Hartford. The Hartford Fireworks are at Riverfest which was supposed to be Saturday July 6th, but has been postponed due to river conditions being unsafe for them to load the fireworks barges...

So, No, No Fireworks.
