Hehehehe.....damn, that's original ! You get an A+ for originality for
sure....

Truth is, I pile 'em up until I can't stand them in my shop anymore. Since I
know the business development manager of this firm personally (he actually
is my mentor; he helped me get in the business), when I drop off boards that
I've unlocked for them, I also bring back a large box of these cans as well.

The few that I do keep, I use to house some of the atrocious Bell wiring
arrangements that go into these new homes - you know, where they splice all
the phone wires together into a spagetti jungle of wires. Cleans up their
mess at least...
