better "funeral" than the toss into the woods that it got?

Or immortalized as a fossil by embedding them in resin -- maybe epoxy, and

I think you're on to something here, Barry, this good. Better than cat meat.
Imagine those that do the 12BA6 substitution and bypass the 3TF7. They could
cast up a spider bottle that resides in the ballast socket. A big-assed
Black Widow would be appropriate.
