William R. Walsh spake thus:

Don't forget the smoke smell - sometimes they can't get that out -
and the DVD laser pickup gets contaminated inside, at the turning
mirror, wnich cannot be cleaned.

I've yet to run into a smoke smell that just wouldn't come out. Some do take
a long time, though.

Incense can go a long way toward masking (and eventually eliminating)
objectionable smells. Really.

If the United States government, with all its capacity to collect
and interpret information, did not see Hamas doing very well in the
Palestinian election in the wake of these other Islamist victories,
then it is either willfully blind or totally incompetent—-
and neither possibility is a very comforting thought.
