This is a funny thread

really.
Do what works for you. If going without a plug works, then don't listen to the nay sayers. If plugging works, more power to you.
9 months out of the year I do not need to plug, based on experimentation. I choose to use duct tape to plug all of the vinos now. That works for me. To say that someone who doesn't plug is wrong is a little bit like saying that their legs are too short. Abraham Lincoln famously replied to the query, "How long should a man's legs be?" with "long enough to reach the ground." One size fit all rarely does.
