==US route numbers==
I have heard some comments on how the highway numbers are organized, which include something like: East to West are odd numbers and North to South are even numbers. Not sure if it's the other way around, but might look into it. -FB 18:04, 18NOV2006 EST (USA)
:I'd be pleased if you can look into that!

Will try to chat with you on the "talk cs" section. For now it seems that wikipedia has all the info needed for a US Route Numbers section. I'm just wondering whether it'd be better to just have a link to the wikipedia article section (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_highway#Numbering), one to the whole wikipedia article on highways (without the '#numbering' part), one to the most general article on highways (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numbered_highways_in_the_United_States), or just a brief summary of the whole idea about numbering (which would require quite some reading and work). In any case, it's interesting reading. If you have time, check out the following link which shows there was a LOT of planning and discussion on numbering roads (quite amazing, it seems at first sight): http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/infrastructure/longest.htm -FB 13:58, 8NOV2006 EST (USA)
