And now let me put in a word for my organization, "Friends of the
Archaeologists"  Our creed is to attach to every object some kind of
permanent indelible tag that explains what it is and how it was used.
So when the archaeologists dig up the landfill 1000 years from now they
won't have to guess what these things were.
