    Ian Fleming was in all kinds of things; he was in the British secret service, so nothing surprises me,

    Writer Benjamin Hoff talks about the observation that led to Velcro. But he said it was in the socks of the engineer - not in dog hair. It always amazes me that we trade in these anecdotes without the means to VERIFY truth. Good video, really enjoyed your enthusiasm for one of my favourite writers. Peter was as interesting a figure as Ian.
