Well this appears to be the consensus of the group.  The question now
is, can it be done?  Sorta' like - Why would you even want to climb that
mountain?  :)

Has anyone done this or know of any one claiming to have done it?  (Not
that it really matters.  I'll probably give up and go the static route
anyway.  Just curious.)

Thanks to everyone for your help with both of my questions.

I owe each and everyone of you at least one beer or coffee.  Your
choice.  They both cost about the same now, anyway!
