Tell me Maurice, have you ever had aspirations of being an undertaker or an ambulance chaser? That's some pretty wild stuff, and I say that as someone who believes vehemently in the promise of a hybrid wireless-fibersphere in an age when the copper cabal has it all sewn up. The idea of tax-free taxis has merit though, although the way that works is one's water taxes would go up to compensate for it. At one point I thought you were describing an asynchronous transfer mode credit-based flow control scheme. Interesting, though. I'll grant you that much. ------

Have no fear Mq, in a short time your traffic management problems will be solved by the high cost of energy. It was only 70 years ago that our fathers first began to take their families out for Sunday drives - a pleasure that in their youth, was reserved for the well-to-do. The rest walked, used public transit, or animals. When oil hit $147/barrel, traffic jams declined by as much as 25% in major urban centers. Mass transit systems approached overload. At $200/barrel we can expect accelerated decline in use of private transportation. When can we expect $200 crude? Give it 5 years. 10 years, maybe less for $300 crude. Your road rage will be vanquished; no technology necessary. Jim
