Hey John, I don't think I've seen that map before - its very nice! I usually
just print from the relevant portion of the Rescue Squad List but its
interesting to see a graphic representation of the members.

I have to say I'm pretty disappointed with the representation of the BC
members.  We have a LOT more Vanagon Listees and owners than the few who are
shown.  It would be good for all if more guys would sign up for the Squad.

My engine failure in Oregon years ago might have ended better if there had
been more than four or five numbers listed.  I got two disconnects and three
no answers and had to tow Dixie home.  I'm not complaining, just giving an
example of why we need more people on the Rescue Squad List!  ;)

Seeya, Jake
