Lisa From wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goober_Peas The lyrics of "Goober Peas" are a fairly accurate description of daily life during the last few years of the Civil War for Southerners. After being cut off from the rail lines and their farm land, they had little to eat aside from boiled peanuts (or "goober peas") which often served as an emergency ration, especially in Georgia. -- Meerkat1

So, if you're running the RADP Pavilion in the MK, then, there is no worry. Ping is still working on the Trimobian Pavilion and all is good in that world. I was afraid of a another six-sided dimensional moment going askew... Askew what? Askew a question and give me an answer! ;) "Sigh..love them bad jokes... All the best for now...gotta dive back through the shrubbery and get on back to Trimobia. Vully TDC Vully, Jungle River Guide & Adventurer-at-Large
