Okay, before we go any further, it is important that I disclose one important factoid - I (James Henderson, also known as your old pal Henki) am the North American Agent for Ollech & Wajs. We also go by OW Zurich, as well as OW Zurich 1956.
So with that said, we're going to simply stick to the facts ; )
