Maybe I can help a bit to clarify the confusion by posting the steps I took (minus the pulling out my hair part) to actually get my hands on and then hand off the Mascot (@ GRM ).

When I first read that the Mascot was in Illinois and it needed a ride to NH I immediately sent a PM to both FXD2003Rider and the person who actually I would eventually pick up the Mascot from. Yes, I posted various questions, as you all are doing, but the bottom line point of communication was the PMs, Emails and phone calls. The person I was picking it up from had to pick it up from someone else who had to pick it up from someone else who had to pick it up from someone else (whew!). First lesson: be very flexible.

While I was organizing the pick up from PA through emails and PM's with Mike, I was also organizing a signing session in NH with Chappy and his wife Sue via telephone and organizing a hand off in NJ with TIPN8R via another thread in the NE Tri-State section of this forum. All were happening within 3 days of each other and I was in constant contact with all parties involved.

Anyway, Each person that was involved in the process posted their intentions, final plans and successful hand offs with pics here:

And they also posted in the current (PUSH) thread which is the thread that states where it needs to go or where it needs a ride from. Yes, it does get confusing and maybe there should just be one "where is the Mascot now?" thread. But the system worked when I was involved. So why fix what's not broken.

I really hope this helps...
