I too hope Anchorage follows suit. However it would be a tough battle down here. I am not privy to FBXs budgets, but with a mass defecit, I dont see anchorage giving up their cash cow of an IM program. Add ontop of that the "greenies" still claiming its the cause of clean air, and the business such as "peger road I/M & Repair". Which I bet their income is mostly IM based as well as any repairs necessary to pass IM.
I DOOOO hope it takes and Anchorage follows suit. If nothing else, woudl give Anchorage more ammunition.
