I do not remember much of it now, except that:              10-4 is over and out       10-20 is location (as in "what is your 10-20"?)              IIRC some of the other lingo I learned:              chicken coop - a highway rest area       bears - the police (and maybe more specifically, the state highway patrol)              That is about it. :)              Mike              ---        * SLMR 2.1a * I'm dangerous when I know what I'm doing.        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/2 18/200 226/16 17 229/200 312 354 426 728 1014       SEEN-BY: 240/1120 2100 5138 5832 5853 8001 8002 249/206 317 400 261/38       SEEN-BY: 280/5003 292/854 313/41 317/3 320/219 322/757 335/364 342/200       SEEN-BY: 393/68 2432/390 2452/250 2454/119       PATH: 2320/105 261/38 240/1120 5832 229/426           |
