DISAPPEARING INK - FOLLOW UP

On August 3, 2009 I posted a piece entitled "DISAPPEARING INK" about the (red background - expiring in 2010) Massachusetts inspection stickers which are rapidly fading. Tonight, Boston's FOX 25 News had a story about this. You can check that out at:

According to the RMV a new vender did not meet their requirement of non-fading ink. The Registrar states the problem has been corrected and the newest stickers will not fade. My old Volkswagen has a January sticker which is badly faded. The May sticker on the Saturn my daughter drives is also fading. We have state inspection on the Dodge Caravan this month. If it passes (and the auto shop affixes a new sticker) we'll see if this sticker holds it's ink or not!
