You should have told him you were a gold bug. He probably would have given you a buck. <g>

By the way, I got a ticket on Saturday thanks to a nice little speed trap in a place I never seen one before. They were set up on foot (one on each side of the street) in a valley so traffic was moving downhill towards them in both directions. They were holding portable radar guns and waving people over to the curb to write tickets. They were very fast and efficient, all business no warnings, no questions about why you were in a hurry, etc.

Just another tax in my opinion. Otherwise they would made the punishment high enough that few could afford to speed or put radar guns and cameras on all the bridges so that nobody could speed without getting a ticket...but that would be bad for business.
