I was having a conversation with a friend, and
somehow I made reference to Duncan Fife.
He said "Who's Duncan Fife?"
I said he's a famous American furniture maker.
He said "How the hell would anyone know that?"
I figured it was common piece of information.
He said "I bet you no one
you ask will be able to answer."
The bet is on and I've obviously lost. :wink:

I know who he is-- my sis has a Duncan Fife table. It's sort of a house hold catchall name for a certain Victorianish type of table.
