Hi Michael. Thanks for the photos.

I think your point about the ubiquity of the symbol makes my point: you find it everywhere therefore it does not discriminate.

I am not sure that it is a Hardy Tool, that tail looks a bit thin. My original thought was that it was made to be set into a log. We'll see.

It is cute though.

Shipping from Austria was the killer ... 100 eur!!!

I came close to having it shipped to you so you could have sat on it until the exchange rate got better.

Anyway, everyone needs one.

Of course you're taking the words right out of my mouth much better than I could utter them, Ed.

Thank you, my friend, and do let me know when you have found out more.

Good night, and do vote for the best presidential candidate tomorrow - that means all of you, folks!

Over here in ol' Europe, most of us have a definite favorite hope candidate for the U.S. and the world - but the election is yours.

Michael

I would have loved to sit on it, Ed, no doubt about that - but would the two of us have lived to see the exchange rate getting any better?!
