Hi Robin,
Any idea why I might be missing my windsock in Nelson?

Could be your Scenery Density setting too low, although I think it needs to be VERY low to turn off the windsocks...
Do you have the VLC Libraries installed and activated?

I blame the Sock Monster!

Whenever I empty my Washing Machine, there is always one sock missing from the pair of socks I put in there.

It has been shown - and I think convincingly - that the missing sock is actually the larval form of the wire coathanger...

There's a scifi short story, probably as old as me, by Avram Davidson called 'Or All the Seas with Oysters', which pretty much deals with this theme, the moral of the story being keep it to yourself, or you'll end up hanging from a hanger in your closet...

PS I just googled him, this story is from 1958, so it's old. And I'm older.
