<div>Thanks Jim,</div>
<div>We do miles, others do traffic. All the same. You forgot to mention the comfort you traveled those 6k miles in.</div>
<div>No can do on beer for gas buddy; what I can do is trade Beer for cores. Remember?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'd also like to mention four of us will be flying intermediate for the first time at this contest. That alone will have high entertainment value. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Ron, if you didn't tease us, we'd think you didn't like us. Smile.</div>
