[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 684607, member: 10543"] I just recalled a story from when I was a college kid in the late '70s. I was railfanning northwest of Chicago and a nice local cop arrived to say that someone from the railroad had called about me and wanted me gone. Rather than run me off, he first asked if I worked for the railroad. "Yes", I said because I did. What I didn't say was that I worked for the Santa Fe and that our line was 30 Miles south. :eek: He was pleased, wished me a nice day and drove off. Sometimes the[I] whole[/I] truth isn't needed.
