Do'h! Premature Epostulation.

What I meant to say was, yes, Matt was required to make an AW
contribution in exchange for the return of the Ratt. The terms were
negotiated by His Judgeship Chris Kelly.

Wilko van den Bergh, Chris Bell, Leland Davis and I (IIRC) were tasked
with the hostage exchange. I don't remember what the Revered Ratt had
to do to get the Roaming Rat back (he might have been required to make
a contribution of a particular sum to American Whitewater).

We had scheduled a huge production on the Festival bandstand while the
band was on break, and it was a massive anti-climax; it seems that a
tiny proportion of Gauley-festerers were RBP readers, and the rest just
didn't know or care what we were doing.

I still have that plastic Rat... After it was "kidnapped", it
literally went all over the world!

There were actually two of those rats. After it was kidnapped and sent
around the world, someone introduced a second rat into the mix... One
of them spent some time with me, and went on holiday with my family. I
hope one found its way back to its master.

The one I saw just just a bit after the infamous ratnapping and I never had
heard that the first was returned. I saw the second rat, I believe, and met
it's doting owner at Moosefest. I caught my first glimpse as he was running
Fowlersville falls.
