I'm sure I speak for many of us here who wish the travellers to Duquoin and elswhere Godspeed. I personallly am nervous about our maiden voyage to Atlanta on Oct 2. That is only 135 miles. Here's hoping all my new best friends have a safe and fun trip.
For what it is worth, some of this stuff is beginning to make sense. As I told Ken Henderson tonight as I struggled to tighten a brand new nut onto a brand new bolt, some of this stuff just doesn't come naturally to some of us. I am a professional BS artist by trade - I run a college foundation and I write a newspaper column. I've never felt comfortable with wrenches...I don't even pump my own gas, but I'm getting there.
Thanks Ken (especially) and Rob and John and everyone else who has made a valiant effort...no matter how hopeless I sometimes seem. Be safe.

Stick,
You're more than welcome, the main thing I would recommend to you before you
take off for Atlanta is go through the Operators Manual CAREFULLY if there's
something you don't understand ASK us!
I assume you and your bride will be making the trip and I'm sure you don't
want ANYTHING to go wrong!
All the best,
Rob M.
