Blimey, thanks for that. Looks like I'm going to struggle as I don't
know anyone in the US other than the odd newsgroup person, which
obviously isn't good enough. This may demand a rethink. 5 months in
the US with a hire car would be astronomically expensive. I thought
that doing it by Amtrak would enable me to go everywhere I wanted
either. Hmmm, tricky.
Thanks again.
