In most PA stores they offer a "take a penny, leave a penny" system. They
leave out a small tray with pennies you can freely draw from with the honor
system of you dropping a few back in the tray when you can, to pay back the
debt. One of the nicest things I've ever seen. I've never taken more than a
nickel, and I always pay them back.

I also wondered about the 180° thread drift. I guess the cost of cellphones
and wireless expenses.
