I don't normally forward anything from another list, but I thought that
this deserved wider publication. --doug

At the same flea, outside in the lot after the rain had stopped, I saw a
kid, maybe 10 years old in a cowboy hat. He found a roughly 1950s Gilbert
chemistry in near perfect condition with, as the kid put ir, "with
chemicals and glass test tubes". I've never seen a kid so happy. The
seller wanted $10 and the kid bought it.
A few minutes later, I saw the same kid looking very glum. I asked what
was wrong and he said his dad had made him return the chemistry set... it
was "too dangerous".
THAT is what's wrong with America today, IMO.
FWIW,
-John
