Now that's a good idea. I have a rubber fuel line that supplies the
Pro-jection and it seems to deteriorate and leak much more often than I

I'll have to go looking. Thanks Jim, even if your reply to Dan wasn't

Don't forget that we want to see you (and any other digesters) at Shoshone

Katie's little buddy will be there the week before Tulare.
