One of my old competitors in Formula Ford pulled with an E250 Ford van with one of those huge plexiglas bug deflectors across the leading edge of the hood. In full sized reversed die-cut letters it said SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT.
He said he'd get so close to people who wouldn't move over, he could see them moving their head to read the entire message!

Big mistake.. You assumed they can read!

Greed of Govt knows no bounds

Here in the peoples republic of New York, there is now a move underfoot to ban radar detectors. State Senators Carl Marcellino, Thomas Morahan and Stepehen Saland, and Assemblyman Harvey Weisenberg are behind this move. Purely another move for more revenue and more control. How about the notion that Govt. is too large, too intrusive on our freedom and just costs too damn much. And they talk about corp. greed, give me a break.

Pot calling the kettle black (can I use that word this year?).

Yes, when the Congress is grilling Corpo execs about salaries, they could be asked, "Who sets YOUR salary and benefits?"
