Looks like they did get to start operating again

You're correct. But still, the sequels are never as good as the original. And, i pray nobody needs to sit through another Tupperware party

LOL! Best Tupperware party I went to (this was 1990) saw me driving home afterwards and noticing a bright glow about a mile down the street from my home. Picked up the husband off the porch (he saw it too) and we drove to the block before what was a HUGE fire at what used to be a hot dog factory.

It was glorious and seeing the propane tanks catch on fire and vent from their domes on the tops of the tanks (they're made to do that, it's a lower temp metal that melts so the gas vents and burns off and doesn't explode the tank) - white hot flames that shot easily 80 feet straight up into the air and sounded like jets taking off.. So cool.

I did pick up a freezer storage set that has outlasted every other Tupperware set I've had. Still have most of it.
