To my knowledge, the idea first surfaced publicly a few or handful of years ago in Oregon. Latest heard about a day or two ago somewhere on the east coast. Maybe Maryland or Massachusettes, not sure. Gotta be careful with these kinds of things. Years ago when lived in Illinois, they came out with those transponders for tollways that automatically deduct from checking or credit cards for tolling on interstates. In Illinois they call them I-PASS, in Indiana they call them I-ZOOM. Folks raised questions of big brother using them to keep tabs on John Q. Public, for which the government quickly said, "Oh no no no, we will never do that, trust us". Anyone trust politicians? Well, I don't anyway. So far as I know they haven't used them that way...yet, but the divorce lawyers sure have. I can't count the number of cases those records (gps) subpoenaed by divorce lawyers to catch cheating spouses that weren't supposed to be where the transponder gps showed them really being and when. Got one of those nifty gps's for your car or truck? Don't cheat on your spouse...her divorce lawyer will aquire those records when you least remember doing it. As far as the government using gps to track folks beyond taxes? Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm certain they would never do that. Aren't you? Chuckle.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
