Thank you Shane. I just checked and there are 668 subscribers to AT-L
including the 'private' members who choose not to have their address appear
on the subscriber's list. I haven't counted the number of those posting (got
better things to do with my time than keeping score) but I'd guess it's no
more than 10%. What pack? How do you XYZ? Where can I park my car so it
doesn't get trashed? Etc., etc. all come up but it's unreasonable to expect
that is all we are going to talk about here, especially if no one asks!

Oh, and to save the trouble of looking it up, Grandma Gatewood's pack was a
gunny sack. It isn't the pack that gets you there, it's your attitude.
