Felder's desperation is evident in his last message. The reason he had his lackeys paint the rear of his Vanagon was to repair the damage incurred when he ferried scab workers into his strike-bound factory. As to Bell Industries making aluminum wool, we pride ourselves on having a holistic approach in the manufacturing of our products. The aluminum wool is spun into yarn by a bevy of flaxen haired beauties working in the tower on the east wing. The yarn is then woven into a surprisingly attractive fabric by a squadron of street urchins working mill (conveniently situated in the basement). The urchins are glad of the opportunity to work and, to a boy, relish the daily bowl of gruel. Expect more great products from Bell Industries. The paint is drying on a very interesting roof rack adapter system - successful products not schadenfreude is what Bell Industries works toward. alistair
