Um, I think that is a distinction without a difference. If I tell you that you either have to turn your car in to the city or remove it from the city limits, either way YOU don't have it any more and YOU don't have the use of it any more. But no, I wouldn't be *confiscating* your car, heavens no. Why, you are free to send it to your uncle Fred in Boise, and you can even visit it every couple of years. Sorry, but no. Fortunately, "taking" has been defined in the law as "depriving of the reasonable use of" as in real property cases. So you may have a little problem with your definition. -Karl
