Laz, "You don't need oxygen at 10,000 feet! GEESH! Some people's children! Mexico City is at 7500 feet and 15-25 million people live there, depending on whose guess you trust." And they were born there and were born acclimated. You dwellers of the sea-level lowlands seem to underestimate your limitations. But hey, that's okay, because you are the ones, along with motorcyclists and skiers and snowboarders and hangliding monkeys, etc., who have kept me securely and well employed for years and will continue to do so. "She lays at home, watches TV, and pounds on a kbd," What? You forgot about the bonbons? <g> "and she worries about ME having heart trouble?????" Oh, m'dear, but I don't have to worry about it! <g> "Hers probably stopped flowing years ago because it didn't need to!" Maybe true, maybe not, but I ask you, why make it or anything else work harder than necessary? Pssst. You go on and keep going on those climbs into the stratosphere, but best get a cell phone with GPS and keep its battery well charged. Then again, come to think of it, I guess there aren't too many rescue services in those places you go to; that is assuming they could even get to you where you go. Hmmmm, no, there aren't and, if there were, they probably couldn't. On second thought, might as well scratch the new cell phone with GPS. Wouldn't help ya no how. <g> - Holly
