First, let me thank all those who offered advice or space to store the near-orphan tent pages: Sami Dakhlia Ron Lussier (lost your email address, Ron) David Schwarze Gerald "running the list isn't enough hassle" Skerbitz Rusty VanBondo Folks, next time you're heading downhill, shift to a lower gear and give these guys a well-deserved twenty-one-backfire salute. <snif> People on this list are great -- and me just a wannabus. Second, hats off and a set of NOS breadloaf safaris to Dieter Dworkin Muller, who's now hosting all the subpages. He patiently sat through the download of six .html files and _83_ images, up to 150kb in size, uudecoded them, and put 'em in their new home. You're a good man, Charlie Brown. Third, for those of you who have links or bookmarks to the tent page - relax! The main tent page will stay at its original URL (see below), so unless you're totally anal and have linked to the sub-pages (foyer.html et al) you don't have to change a thing. Gotta love that web! Fourth, please don't hassle Dworkin with questions about grommet sizes, number of stakes, how to soften the rain-gutter clip, or offers of free like-new tents. I'll still be the "tentmaster" as far as updating the pages, etc. (They're mine, I tell you! MINE! :) Thanks again for all the support! And as a person of (distant) Scots extraction, I'm happy to see this resource stay on the 'net at no cost to anyone. Och, laddyes. The main Westy Tent Page (I finally renamed it "Volkswagen Canvas") is still at http://www.polaris.net/~jclark/tents.html. It's best viewed with the mother of all browsers, v1.2N, but should at least be accessible even with Lynx (can't forget my pre-Windows days). Some of the inline thumbnails are jpegs (sorry, non-Netscape GUI browsers), but you ought to be able to at least download the fullsize images and view 'em with LView or whatever floats yer boat.
