Me too. What I want to know is did the chinese writer believe all
americans have anvils and that we often just pick them up and lay them
on power cords.

Who knows what the Chinese might believe about Americans after seeing
what kinds of products they make for US companies to sell. :)

I don't know about that, but my anvil stays solidly on its stump out in
the smithy. It's a Peter Wright and wouldn't lower itself to stomp on a
mere power cord.

Actually, the Chinese make one decent anvil that I know of. Whether they
recommend it be set on electric cords I don't know.
