Maybe you could get the high school football coach interested and he could get his boys to run some agility drills by carrying the bags up stairs and over landings and around corners and everything...

Yeah, I've thought about hiring a crew, but am not really sure where to look for "guys willing to bust there asses for a few bucks." My friends in other cities say they can just go to the local bigbox store and there are guys standing around the parking lot, you wave some cash at them, tell them what you need, and take them or they follow you and the job gets done. I have not come across that here in Pittsburgh though. You can usually bribe friends with pizza and beer into helping you move, but somehow it doesn't work as well when moving bags of cement. The word from Lowes is that their delivery people won't do it. They will drop it off at the bottom of the steps but that's as far as they will go. I assume that I might be able to bribe them with $20 bills once they were their, but haven't tried it. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University.
