	Sad news, Jim  -  best wishes for recovery.

	Your moving msg prompts me to raise the theme

		thief-"proofing"

	I believe it's not fully possible to make a bus thief-proof, 
but I believe some simple measures can at least delay the thief, 
increasing your chances you'll show up before they can abscond with 
your bus.
	I like the hidden switch on the wire to the ignition switch.
	There may well be better ideas ...

	In some vague compensation I promise Jim a modest Cheese Tour 
when he gets over here.  Kiwi cheeses are second to none.  Most 
visitors cannot afford the exclusive cheeses made at vast expense 
from kiwi milk, but we sure belt out a top Blue Vein and many others, 
most handily at the Puhoi factory near me.
