    What a fantastic marketing strategy - without having any idea what the product is, just hearing that it denied him would kinda make many people want to use it? :-P

      It’s also a reference to a movie for the olds. Big with Tom Hanks. Lots references to it in popular media I’m sure. Evidently Tom Hanks also did a joke about it on a Colbert show(forgot which).

        Yes! I’ve seen it, though I did not recall at first the name “Zoltar”, so I definitely had to look it up, and was kinda dancing around that part b/c as you say it’s been… a minute since that movie came out and nothing prior to about 2010 should exist some people may not know about it these days:-).

        But you are so friendly to kindly offer that info to make certain - thanks:-).
