Hey H.L.:
Go to Wally World and buy a couple of cans of their
cheapie Tech brand of spray carburetor cleaner. If you can
lay it flat, lay a rag on the decal and spray the rag. It
will hold the solvent on the decal longer. That stuff would
eat the scum off of a bad TV show. :-)
This reminds me of our Canadian friend at CUBFEST 2004 who
said that up there they call them "deck'els"... We just
call them decals. Some of the boys in the deep south call
them "deee'cals". :-)

work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and
his body,
his information and his recreation, his love and his
religion. He
hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision
of
excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide
whether he
is working or playing. To him he's always doing both.
