Hot Diggety-Damn!  What is this?  A consiracy?  Your the second person
to just up and quit there jobs and go on long sojourn across the con-
tinent!  Damn! I wish I had balls to do this.  But, I like getting a
paycheck.  Oh well....I guess I a doomed consumer.  ;)

I didn't have these on the list?  That's it.  I've GOT to update 
that list for VWs only.   I used to have a VWs one but I misplaced
it somewhere in some black hole directory along with socks mates
and such.

Let me know if you're going to be in the Sacramento, CA area and my wife
and I will house you for a night.  Of course my wife don't mind.  ;)

What a trip!  In three months?  Good Luck....


Cheers!
