Mark, I spoke with a marketing guy from NCD today and believe I figured out how NCD came up with the code name Thumper. This guy referred to "wibbits" which I understood to be the pronunciation of WBTs. Or, you might pronounce it "wabbit". Rabbit...Thumper...get it? I'm sure I've heard stories of pet rabbits named Thumper just like dogs are named Spot. (It might help if you've owned a rabbit as a kid. They thump the ground with their hind legs when they sense danger). Boy. I just know D. Smith is going to pick that one up and run with it. Jim
