...and, if you've ever been in "there", you'd be surprised how dog hair,
leaves, bugs and all kinds of airborne "stuff" can get in those flues and
cob up the works. This simply keeps EVERYTHING out of there. It fits so
snugly inside the rubber/plastic shroud that dust nor water will get in
there. Very nice addition AFAIC. Also, I'm going to use a splined nut so it
can't be invaded/absconded-with by lurkers and thieves.
