I think we ought to give the boys (Tom 'n' Ray 'MyYachtSea') the benefit of
our cummulative knowledge - how 'bout (Ron?) offering to help the young
lady & her Dad on their adventure across Mexico....esp. since Mrs.
MyYaughtSee's sons have displayed in the past an appalling ignorance of
vehicles of the Vanagon persuasion.  Maybe Ray Saurez wouldn't wince so bad
every time he realizes Clik 'n' Clak are on the same radio waves as he.
