I just got a copy of a catalog from a furniture place, Ethan Allen.  (It
appears that every store in sight knows I have no furniture, and is trying
to sell me whatever they have.)  This is marked "The Essentials Sale 1999,"
and on page 9, and I quote in full:

SALINGER RECLINER -- Classic proportions and lever-less motion keep
Salinger's reclining capabilities a secret ...until you sit back.  (It
might be polite to offer guests the most comfortable seat in the house
before you put your feet up.)  Price as shown: about $1,500 (US).


If I stayed up a week without sleep, I couldn't make these things up....
