   Frank, Ollie had to be put down in July and we happen to be
breaking in a new cat.  We didn't intend to have another pet- lets
just say that we went camping, he adopted us, and the park rangers
were happy to have us get him out of their hair.

  The good:  He travels well and likes to sit on Jo's lap.

  The bad:  For a cat who spent most of the winter outside on his own,
he hates the outdoors.  He also seems to hate being inside the bus at
camp, so after you've opened the slider his default position is
underneath the bus, sitting on top of the transmission.

  I'm willing to wager that you have never spent time on your back
attempting to persuade 14lbs of don't wanna move out of a spot like
that, but OTOH, it prorobably took less effort than, say, removing a
really stubborn fastener. <G>

Safe travels,
George/ATL

P.S.  JoAnn named him Sugar Ray, owing to a permanently BenT left ear
and a little scar on his nose, but if he keeps this up, I'll be
lobbying her to change it to Greasy.
