Default Remember the wacko farmer with the million dollar old carcollection?

Greetings:

Look at the US government liquidation site (commercial venture with DRMO)
www.drms.dla.mil . Up for auction is one single lot of several million
pounds of mixed metal. Looks like the entire inventory of Davis-Monthan
AFB, the boneyard for old military aircraft. Sadly, one of the conditions
is a demil process that apparently consists of shredding the entire
aircraft. Too bad, there is so much history, and potential there. It will
be interesting to see what it goes for.

Yeah,

And how long a turn around time before the Chinese are selling it all
back to us in Wal Mart?

I can't really see the metal going anywhere else, sadly.
