    Morning all:

    Understood Tom that I need to register the new plate with EZ pass.
    What I'm wondering if EZ pass will recognize the current plate as a good plate since the state has already removed it from the system, maybe that doesn't matter to them, NBD since I don't plan on using it until I get the new plate.

    To say I'm not fond of technology would be an understatement. I wonder how many toll booth folks lost a job due to the plate reading tech. Imagine you go out for dinner, use the restroom and have a $5 charge for urinal use.

    That is the weirdest, backwardest logic I've heard in a long time. Meanwhile the vanity tag I inherited from my dad is going to be FORTY years old next year, and looks it. I asked about getting a new one and was told that a state trooper would have to inspect it and declare it worthy of replacement, whatever TF that means!

    EZ Pass stuff can be done online BTW. Pretty simple. https://www.ezpass.csc.paturnpike.com/ezpass/Maintenance/Login

    Re figs: I was ready to post a rant in reply but thought I'd better consult the googster first. I am now a better educated individual! The fig tree bears "inflorescences". Who knew. o_O:)

    I’ve been to all the Hawaiian islands, Tacos seem to be the number one vehicle. They are everywhere. My wife and I always comment on it. I think maybe Maui has the most.
