[Healeys] Healey MkIV (4000)

[Mr. Bill]

Geez..............My medication muddled mind failed me again!  I 
received a phone call from Derrick Ross, former employee of DMH and who 
introduced me to Peter and Joe Cox, admonishing me for my wrong 
recollection of the bit of trivia.  It was, of course, a KEY FOB and not 
a watch fob!

You now have the trivia tale correct and permission to shoot the 
messenger.  ;-)
