Because the people proposing this lunacy are the Barnstable County Commission, and the Cape Cod Commission. Their theory is that the 240,000 year round residents of Barnstable County pay for the upkeep of the roads and cause little of the wear on them--or something like that.

The Corps of Engineers will never allow it, IMO.

And if they do--I hope these bozos remember that part of Barnstable County is on the other side of the bridges.

And if not---my car is registered in "Bourne", not Buzzards Bay

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
