If you'll recall, that actually used to be <a href='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2002/om20020521.html' target='_blank'>Llewellyn's hat</a>.<br><br>Also, the white rabbit (the March Hare) and The Hatter (the Mad Hatter) are two seperate charachters. This confusion stems from the fact that the chapter entitled "A Mad Tea Party," which involves The Hatter, takes place in the March Hare's garden.<br><br>Also, the name "Mad Hatter" is derived from the phrase "mad as a hatter," a reference to how one might go insane due to prolonged exposure to fumes from chemicals, such as mercury, during the process of crafting felt hats. Also, it is possible that the charachter of The Hatter is based on Theophilus Carter, a man who invented the "alarm-clock bed" and developed a habit of standing in the door of his shop wearing a top hat, earning him the nickname "Mad Hatter".<br><br><br>...I know too much, don't I?

There is a slight difference between top hats and stovepipe hats: the latter are cylindrical and don't flare out at the top. If that's Lincoln's famous hat, it's been moulded.

Uh, GhostWay, the White Rabbit is not the same character as the March Hare. Rabbits and hares aren't even the same species, to be technical.<br><br>Then again, so much weirdness happens in Alice's adventures that the rabbit might have morphed into the hare and forgotten that his very important date was somewhere other than the tea party.

Well, stick a fork in me and call me cooked. That's what I get for trying to think and use reference material while I have a headache. Ah well.

Doesn't matter, who says the hat couldn't have been the rabbit's? Or Lincoln's, or Llewellyn's? All the same hat.

Well, seeing as how Alice in Wonderland isn't real, I doubt Ozy got his hat from the mad hatter or whatever.<br><br>Ozy took Llewelyn's hat when Llewelyn went to the adoption Agency. I assume he has had it since. But...where did Llewelyn get the hat? Seeing as how Llewelyn has a reputation for having seen or taken part of alot of history, I wouldnt put it past DCS to have Llewelyn have gotten his hat from Abe Lincold himself.
