<VV> OUCH!

[Louis Armer]

Hi Mark, I am very sorry about your mishap. You were going in the 
convertible so do just that and we can all commiserate
with you as most of us have a story to tell as well !!! ;-) Use your 
creativity and make some BIG bandaids to cover the boo-boo
See you in CR

Corvairly,
Chuck Armer
