that'll leave a mark

Homeland Security has requested and will soon mandate that all commercial vehicals transporting hazardous materials be equiped with GPS systems. They are saying they want us to be able to pinpiont the location of our vehcals at any given moment.
Guess this takes a little steam out of their argument.
I think Troutly is right, It wont happen.

Never been an issue for W in the past.

Question

Why Garmin, Navman and all these guys don't build their own satellites? This will solve many 'problems'.

PS I think that the Gallileo sytem is coming on line in a few years so that will short many problems out Thank God

On the bright side my boat's a lot faster when I'm not using the GPS

Now thats funny !!!

Hey that's strange. Mine does the same thing too

Simply cost. How much you willing to spend to receive GPS signals? The gov't would shut them down too anyway under the same program.

I see. But the Gallileo is independant. Isn't it??
