   Sorry for presuming everyone's as consumer-savvy.  ;)  David Horowitz is
   sort of like Ralph Nader in being a consumer-rights advocate.  He had a TV
   show back in the early 1980s called "Fight Back!" where he took on business
   disputes and dispensed useful information for consumers.  I didn't even think
   about the sheer number of David Horowitzes out there, because he's the most
   famous (AFAIK).  No antisemitism real or implied here.

I've half a mind to go back to my haunt and get some more!  ;)  Nice catch.
