**xt** , your constant dedication to contrarianism is a thing of beauty; you are probably the only person I’ve ever met that’s as instinctively ornery as myself. Your willingness to be a devil’s advocate makes you fricking invaluable to this board, and worth a thousand kneejerkers. Seriously.  
But freind, you’re on your own on this one.

I’ll take door number one, Bob.

If I ever find myself in the USA needing rescue, I would very much prefer “the right way”, particularly since FEMA has proven that it is “the wrong way”.

😛 Well, thanks Furt…appreciated. And no worries…I’ve left you and others out to dry before in other threads I’m sure. Besides, I probably would keep my distance from me too, er…well, I could. Or something.
