display of "unknown" is confusing #185

Closed slinkp closed 11 years ago

slinkp commented 11 years ago

News items that aren't geocoded are shown with "unknown" neighborhood. Because we have a lot of these, the chart display looks bad. e.g. https://skitch.com/fkhfkh/fpfxc/

Trivial, but it gives the impression that OB is not effective at putting news in the "right" place. To fix, the chart shouldn't show the unknown bar.
