FYI - When I stayed at the RPR in June 2003, my aunt (who has a baby and needs a microwave to heat the food) took a small microwave in a duffel bag, and plugged it in when she needed it. I know this is not preferred by RPR, but during the day she put it back in the bag and put it in the closet, and nobody ever said anything! One day she even forgot to put it away, and housekeeping didn't say anything either!
