Out in the wide open spaces (defined as more than 10 miles between towns), I noticed a lot of "Ranch Road" exits. Hmm, I said, must be a popular street name in these parts. It only took three or four exits :-) before I realised that they were Official Interstate Exits for somebody's ranch. When that's the only way to get to your land, that's what the feds have to do for you. -- Wilson H. Bent, Jr. whb@usc.edu USC University Comp.
