Wester,
      Yeah, they'll probably eat at the "Flamer" and use the toilets  
too. Sure sounds like this crew is gonna be a real pain in the butt.  
Maybe we should have a rule that limits the total weight of a crew to  
800lbs or so to lessen the risk. Is it the target, or the size of the  
gun that bothers us?
