I thank you for the well written item, but must correct one note:- "was hired"- in the last paragraph: as you wrote- " The world of kitschy religious ritual items seems to be new to him, but when Bar-On was hired to develop the Chanukkit as a corporate gift, he saw great potential for mass-market appeal". Allow me to correct: Jonathan Bar-Or was not hired by no one to develope ChanukkitTM. He is the owner the founder and the leading person in Jonathan Bar-Or Industrial Design Ltd. private firm, which is known as Jonathan's Studio. Jonathan carried and is still carrying out the development of this new concept for lighting the candles in Chanuka. He started the project two years ago, as a present for his employees at 2006, and as mentioned, still working to improve ChanukkitTM. I request that this note be put on the web I will be happy to provide you with additional information, if you may require. Thanks Orna. Harry
