Message	I know the feeling of a stuck filter. I couldn't get it free with the cup attachments. I had to stab it with a screwdriver a few times. Even with that, it kept making a bigger hole and not turning the filter. I finally got it free after feeling like I was wearing all my Z's oil on my shirt. ----------------------------------------------------- Never Play Leapfrog With A Unicorn!!!
