All great stuff.

Instead of towel or newspaper, take a platstic cutting board(sorry, don't know the technical name of a plastic cutting board) and cut to the size of the inside of your cooler and it can be dropped in and lay flat on the ice but kind of snug to the sides. Drill holes in the board to allow the cold air to come up but small enough so killies don't fall in. Place killies on the board. They stay alive all day.
