Rumor has it that John Foust may have mentioned these words:
We should be thankful we collect things that fit in
rooms. The farmer
across the road collects tractors. I think he's got 20 or so filling
his pole shed, packed as tight as sardines.
Having 6 tractors & a classic pickup (well, next year... it's a '75)
myself, I understand the wherewithal of "storage space"... I've been
building a lot of it this fall, mainly so I can move most of my smaller
tractors out of my main garage, so I can work on some of the tractors &
some of my computers over the winter...
On the "breaking of hearts" comment, tho: Just because I can't do anything
about starvation in Africa doesn't mean that my heart doesn't break over
it. Just because I can't ship 40 mini's from Montreal doesn't mean that my
heart doesn't break when I hear them going to the shredder... Most
importantly: Just because those mini's getting scrapped breaks my heart, it
doesn't mean it's a personal attack against those doing the scrapping... It
just plain breaks my heart.
I think that sums it up for me...
Prost,

Recycling is good, right??? Ok, so I'll recycle an old .sig.
If at first you don't succeed, nuclear warhead
disarmament should *not* be your first career choice.
