    Oh - and we got some free samples!!

    Pity you live so far away, Dan, If I'd sent any to you it would have melted before it got to you
    It's the thought that counts. Well, not really. but thanks! Once when I was a kid, we went on a tour of a Hersey's chocolate factory in another state. We got to see what I think you were hoping to see -- big vats of chocolate getting stirred and poured into molds, and Hersey bars getting wrapped, etc. The smell was amazing, plus they lots of broken candy bars as free samples. Loved it!
