No no... that's the $100 penis enlarger.
Unless you can call a rock from my backyard a "she". | | | |

| Yeah, what?
I like the bio on the inventer: " Franck Thomas, European Sommelier Champion in 2000 and candidate for the title of World's Best Sommelier"
World's Best Sommelier... Isn't that an event in the Olympics this week?
Who is into wine enough to spend $100 on the that who also doesn't realize how silly it is? | | | |

| I thought the "World's Best Sommelier" title was occupied by someone in Vancouver. And you guys just like typing the word "penis" don't you? (Ooooooh... It did feel good!  ) | | | |

| For Pete's sake, bottle-age is a REDUCTIVE process - not an OXIDATIVE process. How about developing a piece of metal that causes reductive reactions, not oxidative reactions, as they claim.
Then we could perhaps invent another piece of metal that causes polymerization of phenols too.
And some piece of metal that cause the reactions we still don't understand in ageing wines. | | | |

Yeah!!! And how about a piece of metal that removes all of the "penis enlargement" junk e-mails from my computers' in-box! | | | |
