	The outfit selling the Comfy Kid Dolls under the name "A&C" is the very
same infamous Abernathy & Closthier, which is related to Carter & Van Peel,
which is related to Romar Sales, which is related to Marine Surplus Depot,
which is related to Windisch Interational, which is related to ad nauseam...
	This is also the same outfit which sold the `Malin' hunting knives
discussed in this newsgroup a few months ago.
	You get what you pay for...
