[modeleng] Re: Scrap metal prices

Wot hoppened AJ,

Have the Chinese felt the pinch of dropping world money values????  I don't 
know what the Meth addicts will do if they can't get a good price for their 
stolen copper.  I suppose I will have to install burglar alarrums and check 
on my ammo supply as they will probably start breaking into homes now to 
steal anything they can sell easily.  For a while they were stealing air 
conditioner units from office and store building roofs for the copper.

I will just have to hang onto my several hundred pounds of brass scrap until 
the Chinks start cornering the market again.  These are all defective 
castings I accumulated over the years when I was dealing with a foundry down 
near Memphis.  They finally closed up, mostly because of poor quality I 
would imagine.  I get almost no defects in the castings I get from another 
foundry near Nashville.
