Not insulator related: but ever wonder where that toothpick you pick your teeth come from? I doubt any are made in Merritt, but I'm sure one heck of a lot of other wood products are made at the lumber mill just down the street from the Merritt Insulator Show. Hey, I wondered where Bob got all those poles for the display field. I was very impressed with the way timber harvesting and reforestation is handled throughout BC.
