THAT is what we need today.<BR/><BR/>(Oops, sorry- it was a science fiction story where the US Supreme Court had ruled that interstate highways could not be regulated by the government. There followed an arms race, where folks traveling interstates armed their cars with machine guns, rocket launchers and so on, and attacked each other at will.
