Nah, Andy, I saw the error of my ways a couple or 3 years ago on that point. But this morning, short term memory was occupied listening to all the muscle complaints as I'd overworked my leg muscles already digging in a sump pump pit and they were screaming & burning. I had pulled about 7 gallons of mud/yellow clay gumbo out of a hole flooded with muddy water, so I was working by feel alone to dig. Probably 20 gallons to go before the plastic tub for the pump to stand it will fit. The pump in the meantime is hanging in a clothesline wire noose that lets it touch the bottom of the hole but holds it close enough to vertical for a drunk. 10 or 15 degrees of lean from plumb is just fine for that. Diabetics can easily use up all the fuel in a muscle, fuel that properly functioning insulin feeds them quickly in normal folks, is several hours, some times the next day getting replenished for the diabetic even if the glucose is north of 200, the conversion chemistry just is not there. But its something I have been living with for 30-35 years and I still have both feet, unusual in itself. I must be doing something right, not that I am complaining mind you. ;-) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
