Thanks to everyone on the list for the assistance. I have located a couple
of pipes in Alberta, and hope to pick one up this week. I hope to be mobile

Steve Kenyon: your e-mail seems to bounce when I try to reply. I am hoping
to meet up with Theo in Calgary, so I'll take a rain-check on visiting you
in Wetaskiwin, if I may.
