 EG> That is ridicules, to me, because it requires  one to  make 2 trips to

Well Thank you Ed, I just might be coming back out your way next year...
I will agree that while I was out there I had no problem buying gas, and
yes it was 76 where I did my business. In Burbank, Glendale, and North
Hollywood I never had a problem. All this made me realize how hard it is
around here when I got back.... I am now using the newer pumps that
except the credit cards at the pump... Sure helps!
Take Care Ed,
James
