My Gun Metal Bolt also began to experience similar wear with a couple of weeks. As with you, it does not bother me, but one would think those who make the Bolt would put a little better finish on it. BTW, it is off-topic, but if I may ask, what part of the Ecuadorian Amazon region are you in?

That is such a lovely and beautifully done poem. I think I could use a marshmallow, too.

dlsw, you'd like my better half. She once asked me about the source of a passage I quoted. When I told her it was in the Bible, she whooped out The Secretary's Handbook to look it up.
