Al,


You are a genius!  I was in the middle of writing and email saying how I had
bought the same net as Doug Alcock and I found it OK, but far from perfect because
there weren't enough tie down spots on the luggage rack to hold in my firewood
(which is all I use it for).  But then my system froze.


Thanks for the tip!
