Message-ID: <4910AC03.4060602@pobox.com> My air-mattress has a slow leak. I thought I'd patched it yesterday, but today I woke up again with shoulders on wood. I lack a convenient body of water big enough to dunk the thing to look for bubbles.

By my map, Central doesn't meet Cypress Point; does this mean you're in the "back" of the complex? -- Anton Sherwood, http://www.ogre.nu/ From bronto at pobox.com Tue Nov 4 23:58:17 2008 From: bronto at pobox.com (Anton Sherwood) Date: Tue, 04 Nov 2008 15:58:17 -0800 Subject: [Exi-bay-chat] can i borrow your swimming pool for a moment?

So I came home and tried soapy water (at someone else's suggestion), and found a stream of bubbles from the edge of yesterday's patch. I hope a bigger patch does the trick. The problem appears to be that the hole is in a groove, with which the first patch didn't quite mate. -- Anton Sherwood *\\* www.ogre.nu "How'd ya like to climb this high without no mountain?" --Porky Pine
