Silly me. I went ahead and sent that last message before checking the next
issue of the Digest for any more messages on the topic. I guess that's a
risk I take by getting the Digest version.

Yes, it does; thank you! This is how I originially interpreted it, but...

I missed the "with" in the original; Mr. Leupold missed the "you". I guess
it could have meant anythign when worded that way. Maybe we ought to just
forget the drummers and call the Coast Guard...the joke says nothing about
not having a radio or cell phone...
