   I’ve heard about this. I really want to know how they did it because frankly, it doesn’t seem possible. EVERYTHING is made in China!

   Looks like an interesting one… will have to add to my library queu. Would be a fabulous blog topic… IF someone was willing to go without things made in China for a year… which frankly I cannot imagine.

   And you know, they did seem abnormally SHINY….
