The actual outside temp was about 86F       and the inside was 101F because the Sun heated up the metal of the car. I       discovered the trunk is a great place to put a new loaf of bread. It comes       out so fresh it'll slap you. (-:                     Regards,              Roger        --- timEd/386 1.10.y2k+        * Origin: NCS BBS - Houma, LA - (1:3828/7)    |
