[TR] Government at its worst

[Andrew Uprichard]

Thanks to everyone who replied with a helpful spectrum of suggestions,
including trying a different RMV office, acting stupid (shouldn't be
difficult), getting the car titled first in CT, employing a "commissioner of
oaths", contacting a local state representative, securing a mechanic's lien
or "selling" the car to Dave in Dallas and have him sell it back to me.  For
varying amounts of money, I have even been promised an Alabama title. One
respondent said I shouldn't have waited so long and another that I shouldn't
be pointing fingers when it was my fault in the first place.

But I loved Terry Smith's reply:  "government can descend to depths much,
much darker and deeper than this frivolity".  How true !

So I am going to march through the suggestions and let the list know how I
make out.
