Bilyclub, my bad! My note should have been addressed to the OP Vickersbond instead of Joe. That's what I get for hurrying into and through a post. I thank you for the "catch".

Didn't work for me. It might have been someone other than Joe.

How do non residents get through the Paradise gate just as easily as you can with your gate card?

What card? I put mine in the office and haven't used it for the past 2 years. I thought the red button was what you used?

99% of people who read this have never been through that gate. Relevant for 1%, irrelevant for 99%

Probably true...

Never used it, never will... If I'm going shopping that far North, I'm taking the car...

Might go there sometime just to say I did.

Was initially concerned I would be able to get out but not back in until someone on the forum explained that you needed the card to get out too.
