I didn't think we needed to mandate this. So, I've left it in the 
position where the transport allows it to be more than one, but the 
driver is free to reject it if it desires.  That said, I wouldn't expect 
an ELS to be more than 1 buffer.  If everyone feels strongly enough 
about it - we can make this restriction.

However, we can't do this on CT operations.
