jwb's note about PHC being similar to the grand ole opry is right on, and
the funny thing is that i bet hardly anybody in the opry world even
knows about the "imitation"; on a related note, i recall hearing a group
in texas called the "lightcrust dough-boys" which were sponsored by a
flour-mill, a la the martha white thing nowadays; they were even used as
the major media device for a texas politician (W. Lee O'Daniel, governor
in the '40's i think), which really sounds funny in today's multi-M$$
political arena; so the PHC powdermilk things are also very reminiscent
of them as well... ernie harkins
