CD's and audio cassettes. Home land lines. Desk top computers. On foot electric and water meter readers. Paper love letters. Human being cashiers. Lots more. Automobile salvage (recycling---"junk") yards. My latest used swedish chariot came without a roof rack. Lower priced model sans this "option", we're told. Used one all the time on previous wagons, for hauling things, including canoes and sea kayaks. Dealer wanted almost $600 to install an original Eurorack factory model. Local junk yard had identical one for $25, including all mounting hardware, if buyer removed it himself. Had to walk with a few tools down to the lower 40 (yards these days seem to be on former farm sites), avoiding the poison oak, accompanied by two friendly huge German shepherds, who normally protct premisses off hours. Real sweeties. Dogs seem to know dog lovers. Scratched their bellies as they had lain on their backs while I took a break between right and left sides of car roof. Installed easily later in under an hour at the Aa mansion garage workshop......And doctor visits lasting more than 8 minutes, her eyes never meeting yours, while she plugs your info into her (billing) ipad. Times a changing, yep. Aa.
