Why thank you, Bev, for the information.  After all, I wouldn't want to be 
like the people I described in my post.  I'm going to tuck this information 
away so that I can keep it for future reference.

Signed,

The New and Improved Bill

P.S.  Good luck, Bill, if you're going up 5.  Snow and chain advisories 
starting just north of Redding.
