Yeah and when you wind it up the piece will play a selection of ever popular tunes: Over the River and Through the Woods, Let It Snow, I'll Be Home for Christmas and Santa Bill is Coming to Town....

Mike I'm sure you'll enjoy your new Portland Head. I guess the rest of us will just take the versions we have and if we want snow on them, take some of that phoney stuff and sprinkle it on.

One thing to remember here. Whatever Bill may have said in the past may have been his intention. At this point Bill is getting on a bit and many of the decisions currently being made by HL may reflect not only his ideas but those of others who are trying to insure that HL survives as a business for years ahead.
