Thanks, LOL -  me too.  I have no sink in the basement so I use the kitchen sink to
wash van parts.  Fortunately, I've made it clear to my wife that, when ranking my love
for women and my love for vanagon westies, at this time of my life (56), I'm not sure
who/which ranks higher on the "love" scale.  Over my life I've had 3 westies and 2
wives & I see no reason to not even the score.  Partly for this reason, she at least
tolerates by proclivities.  Malcolm
