I read all of the stories here, thinking about what does and what can happen. In times past it was the correct thing to do, call or contact the owner and everyone goes home happy. Not so now. In fact, there was a scam going on where people were "losing" things on purpose, then accusing the finder to the point of extortion.
We found a wallet in the street in front of where I work. It had a DL, debit card, several credit cards, and student ID card, no cash. We discussed this for a couple of days at work, thinking and hoping maybe the owner might come by. The address on the DL was from another city and we knew the owner was a student. Finally, I put it all in a plain "bubble" envelope, and mailed it with no return address to the address on the DL, thinking that either the parents would get it, or it would get forwarded, etc.
We think it was stolen and only the cash was taken out. It's a crying shame for good people to be blamed for stuff when they are only trying to help.
In the 70's while working at a grocery store I found a DL with 7 one hundred dollar bills wrapped around it with a rubber band. It belonged to a local dentist. I called his office and left a message for him to come by the store at his convenience for his DL. On arrival he took it, looked at it, peeled off one of the bills and offered it to me. I didn't take it, but on subsequent trips to the store he was very generous with tips for me carrying out his groceries. Never was there a suspicion or thought of wrongdoing. Of course, he knew how much he had, and saw that it was all there.

Today's Featured Article - Fasteners: The Nuts and Bolts of Nuts and Bolts - by Curtis Von Fange. The nuts and bolts of nuts and bolts is an interesting and essential piece of knowledge that applies to our older tractors. An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let�s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
