You know, Ed, maybe we should begin a campaign to educate the rest of 
the country to the reality of  life in California, Arizona, and New 
Mexico.  It has been estimated by the California Highway Patrol that 40% 
of the cars on the highway are uninsured, and 40% of the drivers do not 
possess a valid driver's license.  In Anaheim, the City Council turned 
down a $54,000 Federal grant to enforce the state seat belt law.  The 
council refused to accept the money because it would be such a terrible 
burden on the city's illegal alien population who could not afford to 
pay such tickets!
