Smithfield's Chicken & BBQ POI typo and name request?

Hi raybo34,

First Thank You for your effort compiling the Smithfield's Chicken & BBQ! I'm heading to Raleigh next month on business.

Anyway I did find a typo in your file.

Line 15:
-79.480483,"34.759573,","Laurinburg, NC","402 Plaza Road, 910-266-8700"

Should be:
-79.480483,34.759573,"Laurinburg, NC","402 Plaza Road, 910-266-8700"

Also could please make a column with name of POI? There is nothing more frustrating then having 880,000 POIs and just see "Raleigh, NC" on my my GPS map. I have no idea what it is? Please make the third column "Smithfield's Chicken & BBQ" and you can merge the last second columns into the first since many GPSrs do not handle five columns correctly.

I can send you an the updated file for you if you like so you can update the website listing. You can continue to be the owner of the POI and make any dates to that file. Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks for helping this file along. I just relocated to NC and Smithfield's BBQ is a great fast-food find ... might not be as good as some of the traditional BBQ places, but it is a LOT better than the other fast food that we typically find along the interstate!
