[Boatanchors] Re: Landed on my doorstep

Gary,

You don't REALLY want this do you?   It's heavy, dirty, and will take up 
loads of your valuable time. You'll cut yourself on sharp corners and burn 
yourself on hot tubes and soldering equipment.   I'll be happy to load it 
in my truck and take it away for you saving you all of the above mentioned 
problems and the disposal hassle as well.
