	Always intersting to wear the bike jacket.  Many places here
	say "come in here with that!!"  I usually point out that he is
	right the jacket could attack someone, and if it is not raining
	hard or otherwise nasty and leave, say something to the effect,
	"yes, these jackets are dangerous, I will leave it in the
	vehicle, but it's OK that I come in here right?.  I wouldn't
	want my jacket to attack someone."  I often wonder if Micheal
	Jackson would be denied entrance to places like that for his
	jacket!?
