Tropical paradise?? Frank, just for your own peace of mind, check out the  
latitude of San Jose, CA, which is in Northern California (not exempt from 
the  shaking and comparatively mild weather) but hardly tropical. Now Los 
Angeles is  warmer (although most older places do not have adequate heat for 
the "tropical"  winters) but not so warm that I wouldn't need as many blankets 
on my bed  as I had in, say Denver or Detroit.

Hey Wise  Guy Seth,

Up until a few weeks ago I would have fired back about how at  least we  
don't have to worry about EARTHQUAKES.  But, as you  well know, we recently 
 got 
hit with one over a wide expanse of the  east coast.  I was sitting in a  
hard wood chair in the kitchen  with no padding (other than the "naturally  
occurring" kind) and felt  the chair shake just like somebody was driving 
pilings  to erect a  new house nearby.  But there was NO sound!  Then a 
brief   
respite and another shake, much larger this time.  I expected to hear  a  
loud 
noise from an explosion outside but it was absolutely QUIET,  except for 
the  
clock falling off the top of the TV set.  I  immediately turned on the TV  
and 
discovered you west-coasters had  somehow sent one of YOUR quakes to  
disturb our eastern  tranquility.  Just you wait until I figure  out how to 
send 
some  snow and frozen rain to your tropical   paradise!!!!!<GGGGG>

Incidentally, a disadvantage of installing the   transponder  on top of 
the front license plate is that at that  location it is   susceptible to 
being 
coated with frozen  sleet/rain which can result in  a  inability to 
transmit 
a clear  signal to the toll pickup  "readers".  I got a  message to have  
my 
transponder replaced  caused by the ice buildup  covering it.  

What is this "ice"(sleet?) of which you speak? Did it fall out  of  your 
Iced Tea?
