Hi
I have a lot of old data books that I guard with

I meant "normal" people. All that is required to learn this lesson is to
give something away free for long enough. People will take your box of
oranges because they want a box and toss the oranges.
Unfortunately, I have to agree in general. It seems to be an adjunct of the
"disposable" society and the monetary fetish that infects us in the "first
world" . I think future generations will look back in horror at our
wastefullness of dwindling resources. Being a "child of the depression" I hate

someone displays an interest in and takes some redundant treasure I've hung
onto.
