Excerpts follow: From <285@packard.UUCP>: "We are contemplating a trip to San Francisco, and would like some inout from parents experienced in this area ... Is it wise (as has been recommended by others) to lie about the childs age in order to pay no fare for him?" From <812@decwrl.UUCP>: "How to you teach respect for the truth? For one thing, by being truthful ..." I suggest that there are advantages to telling the truth about the San Francisco-bound child's age beyond the question of whether the kid needs a seat to themself. -- Andrew Klossner (decvax!tektronix!orca!andrew) [UUCP] (orca!andrew.tektronix@csnet-relay) [ARPA]
