We have state emission stations, they don't fudge because they have no reason to do so. They don't do repairs, sell parts, etc. and are not allowed to recommend anyone who does. The public are not the customers, the state is. That keeps 'em honest and eliminates public protest. -- XS11E, Killing all posts from Google Groups The Usenet Improvement Project: http://blinkynet.net/comp/uip5.html |
