<span style="color: #3333FF"><span style="font-weight: bold">Winner, winner, winner!! I kinda knew you would know that Bruce! We actually went right by there when we went for that &quot;test drive&quot; in the Nova. By the way, you won another &quot;drive&quot;, but this time I'll try and not miss a shift!! Or better yet, you can drive!! For extra credit, do you remember the other entrance to OCIR??</span></span>

<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="color: #990000">No, actually it was off the 405 and you ended up going over the 5 Freeway on a small one-lane bridge</span>.</span>

I do remember that way...now that you mention it. The entrance I was talking about was the &quot;free&quot; way to get in...off of the &quot;freeway&quot;...LOL [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

We may be in town over Independence Day? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

It's probably super-polluted and the EPA cleanup costs have scared any potential developers away [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/haha.gif[/img]

<span style="color: #CC0000"><span style="font-weight: bold">That is pretty amazing in itself!! This particular piece of land has been vacant for as long as I can remember. There are a lot of office buildings all around it and I'm sure it's days are numbered! The old saying was &quot;welcome to smog-free Orange County&quot; and now it's &quot;welcome to orange-free Smog County!!&quot; At least they can't take away our memories. </span></span>
