Heheheh, well down here we actually *work* for a living, unlike you left
coasters who close up shop at 3 p.m. on Fridays to go windsurfing (don't
deny it Doug, I lived in Van for 18 months and I remember all too well
their business practices. (: ). Apologies to Merkin CHs who don't get
the in-joke though I think you have an equivalent relationship between
NYC and LA/SF.

don't have AC); hope you folks in BC have it a little kinder.
