Dave,


 DD> Confusers have pretty much replaced radios as my hobby. I do note cars
 DD> driving around my area with elabourate antennae clamped to the bumper,
 DD> or in one case, mounted on a receiver hitch where a tow-bar/hitch ball
 DD> for a trailer would normally reside.

  I saw a meme which looked like a porcupine with all the antennas on the
roof...and a bumper sticker that noted "As a matter of fact, I do NOT have
enough antennas on my car". <G>

 DD> I dunno about other states - but Illinois allows using your call sign
 DD> as your vehicle licence number. I do note some of those around my area.

  Arkansas does allow such, and offers vanity plates that say "AMATEUR
RADIO" at the bottom. To me, I'd rather not give anything tempting in
information...even a ham radio bumper sticker. One bumper sticker I would
like to get though is one from Operation Lifesaver, that promotes safety
at railroad crossings...noting "ANY TIME IS TRAIN TIME...LOOK, LISTEN, 
LIVE!".

 DD> Be nice when he gets the Scrabble door ported to his current BBS sox.
 DD> I've already challenged him to a game.  Bv)=

  Every time I played her, "she cleaned my clock". <G>

 DD> Yeah, I know. We lost a Scrabble player, Richard lost a life partner.

  I lost my wife nearly 15 years ago, so I know what he's going through.
I met her on a BBS that was run by the local college years ago, and we
truly became "Married With Modem Sysops". We played each other in the
doorgames, and while she was a great winner, she was a sore loser. <G>

  Only if they're soft brownies. <G>
