Oh, right, Leon.  Poor guy.  He must have quite a headache by now.  I

Too late.  I've already ordered the WP337.  (It's cheaper to get two
AN12 adapters than a new WP91.)  Meziere lists the pumps as having a
MTBF of 10,000 hrs.  If they aren't any farther off on that than they
are on their flow and current specs, I shouldn't have to worry about
the EWP any more than the standard EGWP.
