[ic] FYI - *****UPS Ground Residential Code Change*****

My suspicion is that they changed the ratefinder to mimic the same behavior
as their official online tools.  With the online tools ups ground is always
ups ground commercial unless you set a value in another variable that tells
the system it is residential.  I'll bet that sending GRD is in fact
calculating for ups ground commercial, not residential.
