hmmm... i went to college near springfield. lovely area, (well, amherst-northampton area, not springfield, although i don't know the city at all, except the bus station...). as for your wife, tell her that those 12 hours were less than it'd taken to have the fish shipped to you... :-) and probably cost less than therapy.

Many thanks to Tundra John for being an excellent host and Al for the extra fish he unloaded on us. My 75 is packed again!! All the fish have settled in nicely..I slept like a baby..and the wife is now definitely convinced that both Rich and I have completely "lost it!"
