Well, Antony, as the other Californians can testify, all of us are young,
handsome (or beautiful) and wealthy, just as you see on television. We live
in mansions on the beach or in the hills. My garage, for example, contains a
1/10 scale version of the Nurburgring...although some of the corners do get
tight at that scale and it's hard for the gardener to keep the trees growing
indoors...<vbg>

OK at 5'10" it should be perfect. Any 'normal-sized' listers have experience
with this??

And serious thanks for the input...
