   Yeah I’ve never gotten the bangin-it-against-the-wall method to work.

   As some who is on the road about 2 weeks a month, and who often forgets a corkscrew, I often just use the handle of a toothbrush to push the cork down into the bottle.

   Yeah, I have a swiss army knife and a wine key I usually throw in the suitcase, but every so often (50% of the time) I forget.

   You know, with most of these, it would seem like getting someone to drive you to Walmart for a $5 corkscrew would be faster and easier.

   Thanx Doug. For once I learned something useful from the internet.
