Srsly? Lemme go look ...

... I can't find it. Must be well-hidden in a non-obvious category. I
know that Terry Kay has 'em for thirty-five simoleons. I could buy, but
would like to repair.

The leak appears to come from the gap between the two plastic parts,
which the rubbery gasket should seal under compression, but that gasket
doesn't seem to be as interested in doing that as it did when it was a
youngster.

Peter T. Owsianowski proposes epoxy, which could be smeared over the end
to seal the two parts together; I painted my cap bright yellow with
spray paint for plastic -- to reduce chance of losing the thing -- and
so the epoxy would be adhering to the paint, not the plastic, no telling
how well the paint is gummed to the plastic.

David Beierl has a cool suggestion to use RTV gasket compound and
Vaseline to form a new gasket, and I'm predisposed to favor anything
that involves Vaseline.
