Here's  my trick.

You carefully take your hand that's not pulling out the latch  and sliding
the window. With that hand not sliding the window you gently  lift out the
center edge of the plastic screen (only a 1/4") as you slide  the window with
the other hand..DON"T pull out so hard you'll crack the  plastic!...using
this method the Noise will be gone (if you remove that  strip of fuzz every
bug for 50 miles will find out).... Now if it's 5:00am  and you're getting
away early, and the kids next door kept you up all  night... don't use this
quiet trick, but slide the window open and close a  few dozen times ;^)
EEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!

ask me to show ya how I do  this. at "The Fusion"

Yes BUT, that's the alarm to wake everyone in the  campground for the Burrito
Breakfast !  Shall we have window sliding  demonstrations down by the
Mississippi River Saturday or Sunday morning  ?
