Fred, you have my express permission to charge my credit card the cost of
such a great find, as well as a healthy finders fee!

I am (fairly) serious here!

Yes, the same. That is how he makes a living. If he didnt, our
landscape would look a lot ickier, trust me, with piles of rotting
and rusting crap laying around.

Of course, I dont like the melting of good stuff either. Then again,
nobody seemed to want it, or, bad enough to buy it to keep it out of
those melters.

Nuf said. Next time I see one, I promise you, I'll grab it, charge
it on your credit card and have it shipped to its billing address...
