Wow. Take care of yourself. When I was 18, the flu didn't slow me down much, but at age 55, this last bout knocked the poop out of me- I was flat on my back in bed for three days, and felt like I was gonna die.

I'd get it out of the cap and get an oil filled Blaster or something and mount it where it will stay cooler.
