(I am grateful, and pleased, to see the WASPs out these days - that is my coinage for the WA State Patrol for I have the greatest respect for them. I am pleased to read that they are using un-marked cars in some instances, and I would welcome more to be added to the fleet. There are too many instances of abberations on the highways, and byways, and these men/women put their lives on line and deserve all the support we can muster for them. I told this to an ancestral Cousin who converges with my Clark Line clear back in the 1600/1700s, as she works in the WASPs offices that are a part of the team that is the nucleus of the operations.).
