	I'll tell you that knowing how to scrape by hand is still invaluable at 
times.  You drop something hard and sharp on the bed of your HLV and 
raise a bur... stoning it down is a good first step, but taking a 
scraper to it is better.  Of course, you shouldn't have dropped that 
hard sharp thing there in the first place...
