off-topic? Another question on hot dogs

[A. Vine]

Mike,

I bow to your superior history.  As we all know, Prof. Schickele is one of the
leading authorities on such matters as obscure composers, unusual instruments,
and common food items.  It is clear that you are at least his equal, if not his
superior, in such weighty topics.

I think this should be sent directly to the Nat'l Sausage Council as the
definitive story of the wiener flute.

Humbly yours,
Andrea
