I don't know Andy all that well, but my guess is that he'd tell you to 
go to the Clave.

Excellent! When can I visit? :-)

I'd meet you in San Francisco or Sacramento, but I've already bought my 
plane ticket. How about flying to Albuquerque and meeting Bruiser and me 
on Friday, around noon? It wouldn't cost much more than driving, if at 
all. You'd be back in Seattle on Wednesday the 10th, possibly in time 
for some steelhead fishing.

I'd don't think you'll have to worry about that. If Bruiser doesn't owe 
you for those pike flies, he certainly owes you for that pike he caught 
in Montana this summer. :-)
