Thread drift, and DOWNER thread drift, at that... ya know, I know what the OP is about and I have chimed in but reading a few of the posts above reminds me that some of the posters in this thread slept in conditions that make the worst of h/motels look like a mansion. I often think of my uncle sleeping in puddles in the cold with only a tarp to keep the rain off of him in the winter of 44/45. Or, when he just couldn't take it anymore, sleeping on his motorcycle if there wasn't any gunfire nearby.

Can't say it enough... thanks.

Told ya it was downer thread drift.

I now return to regular programming.
