*shrug* I don't see much difference between discussing something here or discussing it while hanging out with live people... no reason not to talk about medical or legal issues just because people aren't experts, so long as the source is kept in mind. Besides, TFP isn't 4chan; I don't see why one can't expect worthwhile advice and discussion here. If the opinions of the average TFPer weren't worthwhile, I don't think many of us would be here. While the answer to my specific question could have been found through a google search, so could just about any other thread asking a question on TFP, and I figured the rest would be an interesting discussion to have here.
Anyway, didn't mean to seem coy, but yours wasn't the only post I was referring to. Probably wouldn't have even frustrated me had I not just had a similar experience in the other thread. In fact, I wouldn't even say I'm upset about it, just kind of annoyed. I guess "make sure" might not have been the best phrase; how about "find out" instead. Do people really read it that literally though? I got two tickets and hoped for one conviction in Illinois, but I have no interest in bypassing the law.
Following the speed limit would work, but then I wouldn't be furthering the Chicago driver reputation among our neighbors, and what fun would that be? (That's said tongue-in-cheek, just so we can avoid any confusion
)
