Jerry made some of the sweetest music I've ever heard and I'd be thrilled with a vanagon list with his image on it being on my bus. I've listened the the Dead since 1969. I am not now, nor have I ever been "hooked" on drugs. I believe there are lots of addicts on the streetrs that have never even heard of the Grateful Dead. The Deadheads have been responsible for resurrecting many a bus from an early grave, fixing them up and driving them from one show to another. For the purposes of this group, I think this is a beautiful thing. Isn't that what we're all about here? The perpetuation of VW busses? Just for the record. Jim Kirk captain@iquest.net
