pm me the info

The inside of the well shaft is made of black licorice. The diameter is about like a small pizza.

Actually I'm not involved with that project in any way - they just sent out an e-mail to the whole company and it said that we should pass along any suggestions that we receive. I'd definitely like to hear what you're thinking, sn.
