Hello,

I'm using the findNearbyPlaceName Web Service and I find it really useful.
However, I notice some weird behaviors about it.

For example, If I use 46.2 (latitude) and -70.7833333333333 (longitude), it returns 13 km from "Saint-Georges".
However, we have a city called "Beauceville" that is closer. Actually, I took a look at the text file (data dump) containing all Canadian cities and found "Beauceville" (id=6295855)... and It did list the exact same lat/lng as specified above (I'm right on target).

Have anyone else experienced this?
Is it a bug or there's a reason for this?

Thanks!
