It's been four days since I responded to what I considered asinine
comments about my posting regarding free Autosketch files and yet no
reply. I would appreciate it if someone would let me know how often
collision sketches are introduced in Georgia courts in 3D. I'd really
like to see one.

I've asked my wife, who motors thru that fair state twice a year, if the
traffic signs there face the driver or if they point toward the sky?
She asked me if I was crazy. I said no and showed her the response posting
about scaling the signs. I mean do signs in Georgia point toward the sky -
why do they have to be scalable? These signs are meant to have a leading
arrow pointing to the "bird's eye view" of the scaled sign. I guess one
might have to scale a sign if it got flattened by an errant vehicle but then
again you'd have a 50/50 chance of it landing face down wouldn't you.

I've always accepted constructive criticism and learned from it, however,
none of my relatives eat bananas on a regular basis.
