When they ask that the employees help to "bring the company back", I consider that a good start. At least they realize that it is broken and needs to return to its former status.

Knit Wits is 53 years old, I wonder how many other Hull #1s make it that far?

I also wonder if Knit Wits could talk what she would say.

Guess I'm getting old. I remember they found/refurbished the Knit-Wits back around 1984 and had it on display at the MIBS that year. Interesting story then and now. I seem to recall that it went down again in Cuba or somewhere, and they've brought it back again. Kudos to Hatteras. Wish they do do the same with me.....
