There is also black nickel.

The idiocrosy is it started about thinks that leech into the water supply that cause cancer, but then it was white washed to include everything, without giving exact details how.

So companies like ours have to figure out what any of this means. Our distributors are demanding we sign a letter that all our products meet prop 65 standards, and some of them won’t but anything that requires a sticker.

That combined with the new 25% tariffs, make business even more difficult, but at least it is difficult for everyone in industries effected.

So we will just switch manufacturing to Vietnam.

Companies like Mattel that own their factories in China, are pooched.

There is a cure on this nickel-chrome menace, and it is called BLACK HARDWARE. But I am sure those commissars from cali will find something "not right" about that too...

I was about to say ... Haven't I been selflessly preaching the benefits of black hardware



through the years decades? One more reason for it, it's healthier and good for the environment!!!

She never had anything posted to her refrigerator, you're being unfair.

If I may confess, Melanie was among the first then "modern" pop music I heard around the time I was 12 (and before I moved on to rock). I had liked the Beatles as a younger child, but my interest in music waned between, say, 8 and 12. My parents for some reason (probably because of "What Have They Done To My Song, Ma?" which was a big hit in Germany) had a Melanie pre-recorded tape and I started listening to that on rotation. It also helped my English at the time, because I found the lyrics very audible on her recordings.





Even back then I had a hunch (untarnished by true knowledge, much less actual experience!) that "the pair of roller-skates" and "the brand new key" were metaphorical!

Nothing wrong with Melanie. She's always done things her way, or at least it seems she has.
