I'd suggest a flashlight to illuminate the dark corners of this as lamp standards have to be upheld .. but it must a good line of business owning a probe factory given the amount of probing going on ..

Perhaps we need to hear from P. J. Proby?

I hear the share price in brown envelopes has now risen. Must be a rush on them at the moment. Always happens when there is a investigation happening.
