THOMAS, Justice,
concurring in part and dissenting in part.
I agree that in Wyoming it is inappropriate to credit presentence confinement against a life term. I concur in that aspect of the majority opinion. I have not changed my views as they are set forth in my dissent in Weedman v. State, 792 P.2d 1388 (Wyo.1990), and I dissent from that part of the majority opinion that credits presentence confinement against the maximum and minimum terms for both the offense of conspiracy to deliver a controlled substance and the offense of aggravated assault and battery. Even though those sentences were imposed to run concurrently, I would limit that credit to only one of those offenses.
