After reading Alex and Craig's dissertations WRT emissions tests (thank
goodness we don't have them here) I got to thinking about somethng I ran
into today at our tag office.  I went to transfer a tag (license plate to
you yankees and Canadians) from our dead Omni to a newer vehicle we
acquired and was told that the state "preferred" that I sell the
Omni before transferring. "Why?" I asked.  "Because down the
road if you revive the vehicle the state will look at the situation and say
"that vehicle was taken out of service" and may raise a stink
about trying to buy a new tag for it."

Weird.

So now I have to research the law (didn't transfer the tag yet, I've got 21
days) and see if there's some kinky law that says that if I turn in the tag
I can reregister the vehicle someday.  It'll cost me an extra 15 bux to buy
a new tag but wot d'hel, the state is not going to tell me what to do with
my stuff.

Stoopid stuff...
