I wish I had your trust in others, Sheldon. On our move here, the
movers shrinkwrapped the futon and a box spring and tied them to the
back of the van. Both were soaking wet and unusable upon arrival. The
moving co. bought us a new bed, along with fixing the oil pan on SO's VW
and replacing the espresso machine.
