	Wayne and his older brother, Dave, had a busy weekend
driving around in his VW.  For more details about Wayne, his

crossnumber puzzle.  To complete the puzzle, remember that there
	a) there are no leading zeroes anywhere,
	b) all numbers are exact integers, and
	c) for obscure reasons, Dave's age is *not* a multiple of eleven.
