Here's an maps.google.com oddity: I was trying to look up how to get  
to Albany NY's Empire State Plaza, and this is what I saw:

http://maps.google.com/maps? 
ll=37.332307,-122.030103&spn=0.005924,0.010131&t=k&hl=en

Odd eh? I know Google uses lower res maps in area's where high res  
maps are not available, but clearly they are in this case, since the  
rest of Albany is shown in high res. I wonder if it is a security issue.
