Yankee Ingenuity!
My good friend Mike Peterson forwarded an article today that reminded me of why - my recent rant about a handful of surly Yankee pundits notwithstanding - I love Americans - Mike himself, for sending this, for starters - and America.

There's simply no way I can 'set up' this link. You just plain have to see it for yourself.
