If you know the answer, can you cite a source?
Thanks,
Pepper

Yes, I saw that and also that it and some others were very informative. I will call the TX DPS office on Monday and ask there. I figure that they should know! :) After that and some other questions, I will post everything that I find here for everyone else as well. Trying to remain focused and upbeat.
