Now charities begging for cars. Suspect IRS ruling, not as favorable to
donor, may have dried up donations.

Charities can also be a PITA. Goodwill refused kids sleds because they
were out of season. Would not take a 15 speed bike in perfect condition
because there was no room in their shed.

Goodwill and SA both closed their facilities here because couldn't get
rid of enough stuff to keep from simply overwhelming their facilities
nor collect enough in revenues to pay the light bill.

That despite being in a town of transient labor...
