Let me know how it works for you. I can shovel a spot out for the car now and then let the sun dry it down to bare pavement so you have a good place to leave it.
We could work out driving arrangements if need be, I haven't been to Bennington since Sarah graduated 3 years ago.

What kind do you have? We have one that just sits on the counter top and holds the towel's upright. I hate the ones that mount under the cabinets.

(A) The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000.
(B) Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are
120,000.
(Calculation) Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171
Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of Health Human Services.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Now think about this:
Guns:
(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000.
(Yes, that's 80 million..)
(B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500.
(Calculation) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .000188
Statistics courtesy of FBI
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
So, statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Remember, 'Guns don't kill people, doctors do.'
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT
ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Please alert your friends to this alarming threat.
We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!!!!!,
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Out of concern for the public at large, I withheld the statistics for lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention.
