Gary,

That is really cool! I've got to try it when I get home.

Thanks,

Something for those cold mornings when those tabs are so hard to push. Just don't tell the bears! :)

Haha, yea, I've been doing that for a couple of years after reading about that technique......works great!! But now I have a Bearikade so I guess I can sell my bearvault or keep as a back-up.
