Awful news. And over chrome plating? I've always thought of the airhorn as one of those distinctly American things - the loudness or it, the length of the vessel that produces the sound, how it alarms one with enough force that they are scared *****less.
I've always wanted to put one on my SUV, and give one of the cell phone adled soccer moms a good two or three blasts.
Len - sorry for the loss. I hate news like that, particularly when it goes to someone overseas.
