Jerry I ran a version using Eureka and it works out just fine. In fact,
just slightly better with regard to the end of the second day in Oregon. My
aim is to turn over the control to the Washington Sector in Astoria and by
adding the extra time to go from Eureka makes the end point come out later
in the day. Closer to the expected stop time each day.
So Eureka! I've seen the light! <smirk> Sorry, couldn't help it. How many
places across this Continent can someone get a chance to say that in a
relative fashion? Okay, don't answer that ... <smile>
