He says Hanes received a copy of his record, it came back clean so he thought he could apply for the permit legally.

[IN Q=We're surrounded...]
((MARK CLINE/ARTIST; WE'RE SURROUNDED BY A NUMBER OF TOURIST ATTRACTIONS, LEXINGTON, NATURAL BRIDGE, AND THE BLUE RIDGE PARKWAY. UNTIL NOW, NOBODY HAS HAD A REASON TO DRIVE INTO GLASGOW, OTHER THAN TO GAS UP, NOW YOU CAN HAVE YOUR PICTURES MADE UP WITH DINOSAURS AND SPEND A LITTLE MONEY HOPEFULLY.))

The town has received calls from as far away as Tennessee and Alabama inquiring about the creatures. Cline says the dinosaurs will stay in Glasgow until at least the end of the year, and might find a permanent home there. (------------)
