I think you're correct about that, Uncle DaveO. But I like the other too. Both fall so well within the parameters of the character he projected. I understand that he actually gave large sums of money to orphanages during the course of his life. He was not the Scrooge he wanted the world to think he was. Interesting man. Of course, as he said, "Anyone who hates dogs or kids can't be all bad." And he wasn't.
