Hi
Although it took some time to get through your whole post :) and digest
it in the spirit that you intended, I must agree with you. I simply
point out the practical day to day issues that may arise and how to
avoid as many problems as possible in life. One good incident with our
vehicles hitting the press and we all know that we will be in deep sh*t
in this hobby.
Glenn

In my experience, the 50 yr. old ex-military types at the border with
experience under their belts and at least a single serving of common
sense are able to enforce the rules and regulations efficiently without
treating you like a terrorist. While it's obvious that we all begin our
careers somewhere, and that that 20-somethings in charge of that
spot-check would not have the benefit of my typical 50 yr.old's
experience - there's not really any reason why that 50 yr. old couldn't
be there in a supervisory/on-the-job-training capacity to help the
younger members become more efficient in useful directions.
