    I knew it was missing something--wings!

    3 taps--a Stout, IPA, and something different on tap at all times...Damned that'd be nice.

    Thanks. That's kind of you to say. Building our toys up is a lot of fun. Your intense build(s) and willingness to play with all the Mini BCM, ECM, etc makes mine look like the simple plug-n-play build it really was!

    Of course not. It's a GP. It has GPness. As long as I don't pronounce it for them...
