[AT] O/T weather out west

[Larry D Goss]

What's just as bad would be figuring out how long that piece of rope would 
need to be.  Every wrap would probably take three feet of rope, maybe more, 
and at $1.15 per foot...  Maybe that's why Long John Silver's changed their 
decor and got away from the large rope hanging around everywhere.
