Sounds suspiciously like the quote attributed to Mr. Lucas that says "A

But today's plastic isn't the plastic we remember from the sixties, seventies
or even early eighties. Oh and speaking of which, did anyone else see the
photo of the melted Saturn in the photo section of http://news.yahoo.com a few
weeks back? I think it was in the Arizona fires and the doors and other
plastic side-panels melted off of the framework. Very cool photo.

are made out of MAHOGANY and perhaps red leather bellows!
