"they haven't sold those tokens in over two years and they stopped accepting them in December of 2005."

A ten dollar gold piece from 1790 is still worth $10. It will be, untill the US folds. The same applies to the tokens issued by the toll authority.

"This guy is just another Ma$$hole who comes up here and whines when everything isn't just like their little socialist paradise down south. Ignorance of the law is no excuse."

Selling tokens and later revoking their worth, is fraud and theft.

"the guy was a total tool, according to the local cops and the NHP guys in Dover I've spoken to. "

These thugs are just agreeable to the toll authority's fraud and theft scheme.

"If in fact he still had tokens from two years ago ... then he's the fool for buying them"

The only fools are the folks that are content with this BS, and think it's justified.

Like I said--another whiny Ma$$hole who was hiding under a rock for a couple of years and thought he could pull a fast one.

Lemme ask you this--you ever travel up here? It's pretty plain when the signs say NO TOKENS ACCEPTED!

What probably happened is this tool paid his toll (in cash) at Hampton and Dover, got caught short in cash, and figured he'd pull a fast one.

Mass is the same way--oh, and BTW--Fast Pass and EZ Pass are compatable with each other. If he had either of those, no problem. There were many PSA's, radio and television commercials, and notices at the toll plazas that tokens would not be sold past 9-1-05, and not accepted past 12-31-05. IOW, he had that 3 month window to use them. Tell ya what--try using a 50-year old NYC subway token today and see how far you get. Due dilligence.

And your analogy of the $10 gold piece is WAY, WAY off. Nice non-sequitur tho.
