To those who say "don't ask/don't tell". I spent over 40 years in the freight business, also many friends/co-workers were volunteer firefighters. Haz-Mat markings & rules are for the protection of fire fighters/ rescue personnel in case of accident. One tank in a truckload might not present much danger by itself, but how many more may be in that load? First order of business when approaching a truck accident is to check for Haz-Mat. Look for stickers/placards. Look for paperwork. If driver is on board, paperwork must be within reach of driver with seatbelt fastened. If driver not on board, paperwork must be in a pouch on driver's door, or on driver's seat. If more than one shipment in vehicle, Haz-Mat paperwork must be on top. If more than one item on papers, Haz-Mat item must be listed first and/or highlighted. Some classes of Haz-Mat must not be parked within certain distances of occupied buildings except to load/ unload. Some classes must be attended at all times by authorized person, capable of moving vehicle if needed. (team drivers take turns, one attends vehicle while partner takes lunch or potty break). Taking a nap in seat over steering wheel, or in sleeper bunk does not count as being attended. To cut it short, Haz-Mat is serious business. The fire fighter/rescue person is someone's friend/family member. Is saving a couple dollars worth putting that person's life at risk? Willie in Mn

As I grew older (7), it was the thrill of my day to ride or drive on the tractor. My Papaw had a 1954 IH Super A that he bought to replace a Cub. My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to
