TM, I think the opener you originally displayed looked fancy and all, but it made me think of people who drive automatics not because they prefer them, but because straightdrives make them nervous.

Those are fine if the cork is "juicy" enough, but when it's too dry (alas, I have no
cave in my dry-as-the-Sahara apartment), the cork gets crumbly and breaks. Ick.
In fact, it was after many a broken cork that I finally bought myself the Anna.
(Isn't she purty?):
I worked at "A Wine Bar Cafe" in college, and had to open many-a-bottle; it's not that I don't know how; I just like the freaking $79 corkscrew. IS THAT OK WITH YOU ALL?!?!?
