 Chris,
 Thanks for that geography lesson. I always thought Canada was one of our 
most northernly States. I heard was quite cold up in that part of the world. 
If you guys would apply for US Stateship, shipping to you would be as simple 
as shipping to Alaska or Hawaii. It cost as much as twice to ship to you 
than to Alaska. Plus there 300% more forms to fill out. It seems to take a 
month to get anything over to you guys. Alaska takes a week. 
 I recommend you start a Yahoo Poll and forward the results to your PM. I'm 
sure you will be AmerCans before next Friday.
 BTW, I am happy to send you stuff despite all the extra hassles. However, 
every other person I have dealt with on ebay where there was a problem was 
from your neck of the woods.
