NEW HAMPSHIRE LOSING TURNPIKE TOKENS

Dick Johnson writes: "New Englanders will want to get a
souvenir token from the New Hampshire Turnpike soon.
They will shortly eliminate tokens and replace collection
booths with EZ-Pass lanes. And what happens to all those
old tokens? Rich Hartzog buys ‘em up.

Here’s the story (but not part about Rich Hartzog --
I added that):"

[Here's an excerpt from the article: "Executive Councilor
Ruth Griffin of Portsmouth is pretty sure she’ll vote to get
rid of tokens on the turnpike system next week, in exchange
for a 30 percent discount to drivers using the proposed
E-ZPass system. She predicted the Senate would soon copy
the House and abolish tokens, along with the 50 percent
discount for drivers using them." -Editor]
