I did see an ad in a medical journal once though for "Moon Pants" -- they have a flap in the back that unsnaps. Could be a step forward.Cervanteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11302076828795198187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9263167.post-11203221880332652242010-06-18T14:02:15.047-04:002010-06-18T14:02:15.047-04:00I'm a very impatient person.

If there had been an emergency, it would make sense, but sans emergency, it just sounds like bureaucratic incompetence.robin andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390482190562312928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9263167.post-10539553344572206462010-06-18T13:41:21.209-04:002010-06-18T13:41:21.209-04:00glad it went well technically.
