I, myself, personally (and redundantly, I might add) also saw them. <g> The true question that has puzzled Dometic owners from the time of Herodotus is what one does with the ice cubes so made. They are so small they melt before you can get them into a glass. Since nothing in a Westy goes to waste, one can only assume that the ice cubes serve some purpose that has been lost to us over the eons of time it takes to get the Dometic fired up again. :) One hopes that Science (or Martha Stewart) will solve this puzzle for us all.
