I bet matcom wants one of these. My new kitchen toy:

The Graviti

This battery-operated peppermill is so easy to use you won't believe it!

Just turn the mill over and gravity takes over. The mill automatically starts grinding fresh pepper. No buttons to press, levers to crank or handles to turn. Because the grinding mechanism is at the top it won't leave ground pepper everywhere.

The adjustable ceramic grinder can accommodate any dry spice, including sea salt. Clear acrylic window lets you know when it's time to refill. Mill stands 7 1/2" tall. Batteries not included.

2. I only get .0001 %.
Actually, Miz t. brought one home as a surprise gift yesterday.
I think it was about $20, more than I would have spent.
But she loves me. So I guess it's OK.
She knows I love gadgets, especially pepper mills.

5. Heh
And wouldn't you know it? Canadian distribution only.

I checked, I'd have to learn French and/or get a masters to immigrate.

3. Are we getting so lazy as a society that we can't even bother to grind our own pepper?
