Glen, I sent a reply to another reader about that........ask anyone about 
that stretch of Rt. 89 in Enfield NH.....known as HYPNOSIS HWY......the 
police are lobbying to get rumble strips in its so bad......you as least 
were not as harsh in your statements......BTW, the fantastic driving was 
asfter he awas off road......if you had seen the area.......had he not 
driven it well, he, they would both be dead........he kept it off the 
cliff and off all the signs......THAT's where the good driving came 
in.....not the falling asleep....BTW.....we all have trouble staying 
awake on that stretch of road......
