I think the original in that thread was posted on an April 1st. I know
the one you mean..

But, the Gravitar did exist - at the very least in proto form.

Around 5 years ago, when I lived in San Francisco, there was a rumor of
a
guy up in Santa Rosa (or Sacramento?) who had found a Quantum cocktail
from
a newspaper ad. But then the rumor turned out to be not true and I
think he
had in fact found a Gravitar cocktail? My memory of what happened is
very
vague so I could be completely off base here.

Anyone remember any more details?

Oops, google to the rescue....

It was in fact a converted Tempest cocktail that someone had made into a
Quantum.
