Still cold up there in the Great White North Robert? Better light the
sterno can under your brain as it is icing up......I know the survey you
are talking about and it should have had a section for cars most likely
to get caught speeding. Then the top answer would have been anything
driven by me. I was a favorite of the OPP. I like the new paint that
Dupont came out with that makes the car look one color when it is coming
towards you and another when you drive away. Bet that would throw the
coppers off.

PS. I always wanted to get ahold of the matchbox color changing paint
that changed colors when it got wet and paint a fleet of rental cars
with it. Imagine the confusion at the airport when it rained.<G>
