Ahh Doug,
After stumbling around a very dark jungle with you once, on the hunt for a free beer, your propensity to produce monsters does not surprise me. My fellow GE from that trip one T****r T*****n sends his felicitations. I know that departures have been delayed because of snakes in the nose gear bay (Belize as I recall) and large rodents eating the wiring looms. I'm sure that fellow contributors might have experience of such occurrences. Let's be hearing them then gentlemen.
