Now in Europe, they have recycle containers on the street corner. They are
more like dumpsters. There is a special one for wine bottles. I think it
is yellow. There is a hole just big enough for one wine bottle at the top.
When they empty it, a big truck with a crane picks it up and dumps all the
glass at once into the truck somehow. Then later the waiters come and pop
the bottles in, one at a time. You have no idea what that sounds like,
three in the morning, when the container is empty.

Cheers,

Earle

Heh. you could weld in hollow bar into the lug holes then use them
to hold individual lights. Backwoods candelabra.

Or build a very heavy wind chime.
