	Glad you liked it.  I snuck into one of your classes.  But I had
others trying to get my attention all day.  It's nice to see all these
people I "talk" to on this infernal machine!

May I heartily reccomend that?  My own difficulties with cold are strictly
due to my being a wimp and a sybarite in my old age.  Knowing that I had a
motel room with heat, hot shower, and cable made the cold on site a lot
easier to take.
	Don't get me wrong, I'll warm-weather camp for weeks on end, and
ridicule the young folks who run into town for hamburgers and air
conditioning.  Heat is nothing!  But cold and arthritis does not make for
a happy bard.

	Hey, I never did get to the merchant's tent.  I wanted to see your
wares...I don't suppose there is another close event I could get to, Is
there?
