Did somebody say <<egg-horn>>?  Reminds of an incident in 1985, WB's last
year in the States. The five-year-old neighbor kid wandered into WB's study
and snooped around. He picked up a small metal object and asked, <<Wawwen,
what's this?>> <<That's a shoe horn.>> <<Oh ...>> Then he placed the small
hole on the end up to his lips and blew.
