========== Quick questions. How do the Traubs with the centerless ground guides compare to the same size Brownie with the traditional gibbed ways from a durability and maintaince standpoint? How does setup times compare? Do the cams cost about the same?

Google shows the following among 1,000s:

Hey Gunner,

Up here, we're REAL pissed about the need to have a passport for ANYONE/EVERYONE (which includes US citizens) to enter the USA. This may be a requirement.sometime in the next few years. It is uncertain if that will mean ALL US lands and territories, or just the "lower

48".

It will have a damaging effect on many things and business in general, and to what avail? It will create an very expensive US border operation, and certainly will not stop "terrorists", criminals, or illegal's in any way. It will only dissuade people like you and I from entering.

I doubt that people living further than say 150 miles from the US-Canada border will think much about it at this time, as they don't probably care, but those that do live in the closer areas will just stop crossing either way at a moments notice.

Take care.

As of Dec 31, 2006, you will need a passport for all air and sea travel to Canada or Mexico. As of Dec 31, 2007, you will need a passport for ALL travel to Canada and Mexico.

I live near the canadian border, and go up there all the time- I have been carrying a passport for the last couple of years- yes, legally you can still use photo ID, but its lots slower, and you often get asked for a birth certificate- and who carries that?

With a passport, they just scan it, ask a few questions, and you are thru.

This is all coming back to the US- the canadians are much more flexible and quicker. So leaving aint the problem. Its coming back.

A passport costs 97 bucks, plus photos, and unless you are renewing, you must apply in person.

I beg to disagree, Brian, once I got over the shock of having to get a passport to visit my son in the other London, I find it convenient to flash my little black "Canada" book and be on my way. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

I've got a place in Tasmania & 2 in NSW including 600 acres of timber & scrub for shooting on. If I'm not away at sea, there'd be beer, sailing and popping the odd cap....

My Canadian passport just cost me about C$87 :-p

Interesting note, if you fill out your application forms online, you bypass the huge line at the passport office. I was back in my car after

30min. If you manually fill out the paper form, you have to wait for hours and then you have to wait as the person transfers the info into the computer. I felt kind of bad, being shuttled to the "front of the line"...

Regards,

Robin

Way cool..and thanks for the invite. Ill put it in my list of things to do!

We will likely be as p*ssed as you or worse when we wake up to it being in effect. Considering the push for REAL ID drivers licenses, I don't see why US Customs would need a passport for Americans re-entering the US.

As of January 1 a passport will be required to return from US possessions like the Virgin Islands too. Only Puerto Rico will be exempt.

I had a buddy that was US born and carrying a US made and stocked tool kit. He left N.Y. to work at IBM and then came back... nailed him at the border - importing HIGH TECH. Tools and a couple of IC's. The IC's were available by Digikey anywhere. Took all his tools... and held him until a fine was paid...

He walked across the boarder with it just fine - just should have had more paperwork.
