-Well, I guess it came off when I was away yesterday..all by itself!...No
seriously, I think Denny stood on the pipe instead of Adam. That mass and
gravity thing. Maybe an extra day of soaking in the penetrating stuff helped,
or different RH/atmospheric pressure, or the position of the stars - who
knows. It's off there anyway, thank goodness. (I'm sticking with the more mass
on the pipe theory BTW)

Oh and BTW, that may be close to Allyn's correct weight (maybe it's one of
those "classified" submariner's things...) and may explain his quickness in
those autocross videos from Cincy...
