Dave,
Thanks for the very concise & clear info. I figured I'd have to jump
through hoops spomewhere, but I didn't want to start asking too many
questions and raise a bunch of red flags in the DMV. I will probably
contact CSAAA and see if I can start there, and what they are able to
do, and then take it over to DMV. I will certainly ask more questions
as they come up, you can be sure! Thanks.
Peter
