You unintentionally insulted "Trooper" Towner Irene, NYS Troopers don't cotton much to being called "Officer".

I know this to be a fact from the time I served on the Grand Jury, they WILL correct you if you call them anything other than "Trooper".

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" is a frequently referenced part of William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet ... The reference is often used to imply that the names of things do not affect what they really are."
