If I'm traveling in an area with a lot of tunnels, I'll make sure that I'm not using propane because I've always been afraid to disobey those signs that say to shut it down before entering. :-) What's the deal with that, anyway? Does anyone else comply, or is just paranoid me?

And from reading the other thread on the cupboard door, I guess that I may be the only spazzy person who, when struggling with the back table in the Westy, got it spun all the way around 10 different ways so that it wouldn't fit back into the space? Time after time after time ...
