I have a harvested speaker magnet on a rope that I drag around the floor when all else fails.
I find things I wasn't even looking for. Probably from the guy who lost it in the other alternate universe.
Yes, they do indeed go in the junk box.

Hi Breck,

I am convinced that small parts that are dropped go into another
basement in and alternate universe version of Earth.   These parts are
picked up there by an alternate Earth hobbyist, and not knowing what
they go to, are tossed into a junk box where they spend eternity. 
Anybody want to counter that theory?
