1. An article holder comprisinga base including configured for attachment to a bracket assembly; bifurcated arms, spaced apart fixed to and extending from said base; and a plurality of resilient fingers projecting inwardly from an interior surface of each of said bifurcated arms, at least some of said fingers each including an upper incoming engagement surface connected at an first end to one of the bifurcated arms and connected at a second end to a first end of a lower exiting engagement surface, a second end of said lower exiting engagement surface being connected to the one of the bifurcated arms at a position closer to the base than a position of the first end of the incoming engagement surface, the incoming and exiting engagement surfaces defining an air space between said surfaces and the one of the bifurcated arms from which said finger projects; wherein at least a portion of the incoming and exiting engagement surfaces are substantially planar. 2. The article holder as in claim 1, wherein each incoming engagement surface extends inwardly and downwardly towards the base from the first end to the second end of the incoming engagement surface.3. The article holder as in claim 1, wherein th exiting engagement surface extends upwardly away from the base from the first end to the second end of the exiting engagement surface.4. An article holder as in claim 3, wherein at least some of the incoming engagement surfaces and the exiting engagement surfaces include two or more exposed surfaces, wherein each exposed surface is oriented at a different angle relative to the base.5. The article holder as in claim 1, wherein the exiting engagement surface extends downwardly towards the base from the first end to the second end of the exiting engagement surface.6. The article holder as in claim 1, wherein the fingers projecting inwardly from the bifurcated arms are spaced apart along the arms from an upper end of the arms towards the base, and the fingers are smaller at the upper ends of said arms and are progressively larger towards the base.7. The article holder as in claim 1, wherein the first and second ends of the exiting engagement surface are positioned substantially equidistant from the base.8. An article holder comprisinga base including means for attachment to a bracket assembly; bifurcated arms, spaced apart, fixed to and extending from said base; and a plurality of resilient fingers projecting inwardly from each of said bifurcated arms, at least some of said fingers each including an upper incoming engagement surface connected at one end to a lower exiting engagement surface between said arms, said fingers each having an air space formed between said surfaces and an interior surface of a bifurcated arm from which said finger projects, said upper incoming engagement surface extends inwardly and downwardly toward the base, said exiting engagement surface extending inwardly of said bifurcated arms, and at least one exiting engagement surface extends substantially normal to an interior surface of a bifurcated arm. 9. The article holder of claim 8, wherein at least a portion of at least one of the incoming and exiting surfaces is substantially planar.10. An article holder comprisinga base; bifurcated arms extending from said base; a plurality of resilient fingers projecting inwardly from each of said bifurcated arms, at least some of said fingers each including an upper incoming engagement surface connected at one end to a lower exiting engagement surface between said arms, and said some of said fingers each having an air space formed between said surfaces and an interior surface of a bifurcated arm from which said some of said fingers project, each said incoming engagement surface extending inwardly and downwardly toward the base, and each exiting engagement surface extending upwardly away from said base from its engagement with said incoming engagement surface. 11. The article holder as in claim 1, wherein at least one exiting engagement surface extends substantially normal to an interior surface of a bifurcated arm.12. An article holder comprisinga base including means for attachment to a bracket assembly; bifurcated arms, spaced apart, fixed to and extending from said base; and a plurality of resilient fingers projecting inwardly from each of said bifurcated arms, at least some of said fingers each including an upper incoming engagement surface connected at one end to a lower exiting engagement surface between said arms, said fingers each having an air space between said surfaces and an interior surface of a bifurcated arm from which said finger projects, said upper incoming engagement surface extends inwardly and downwardly toward the base, said exiting engagement surface extending inwardly of said bifurcated arms, and wherein at least some of the incoming engagement surfaces and the exiting engagement surfaces have multiple sloped surface, and each of the multiple sloped surfaces is substantially planar. 13. An article holder, comprising:a base; bifurcated arms coupled to the base and defining an open upper end remote from the base and a inner space between the arms; and a plurality of resilient fingers projecting from each of the arms into the inner space, the fingers each including an upper engagement surface facing the open upper end and a lower engagement surface facing the base, the upper and lower engagement surfaces defining an air space between the upper and lower engagement surfaces and the arm from which the finger projects, wherein at least a portion of at least one of the engagement surfaces of the plurality of fingers is substantially planar.
