*Happy sigh* I love a good WAFFy read. Thank you!
I never would have gotten the real explanation for Clark's nickname; at least not without having engaged in an Internet search which I really didn't want to conduct. (I can only imagine the sort of pages that might show up if I were to conduct a search with "rubber" as one of the search terms...) But the explanation does make perfect sense, once you know about the company.
Thanks also for including the picture links. They give me a much better feel for the locale. I've taken to following the links before I even read the story parts, for that very reason.
cheers,
Lynn
